1802 Alexandre Dumas, Sr – French playwright and novelist (The Count of Monte Cristo, The Three Musketeers)


I've read those both although I believe The Three Musketeers was the Readers Digest Condensed version. I couldn't tell where anything had been shortened.







1897 Amelia Earhart - Aviator who was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, and the first woman to fly solo from Hawaii to California

I read recently where they think they may have found her. Don't ask me how. I only saw the headline and thought it couldn't possibly be verified.







1951 Lynda Carter - Actress (Wonder Woman, Partners in Crime, Hawkeye)

I always watched Wonder Woman. I'm not sure why.
