While researching the book, he traveled to Kansas with his childhood friend, Harper Lee, who is the author of my favorite book, To Kill A Mockingbird. He also wrote the novella "Breakfast At Tiffiany's" among many others.
He died of liver disease in 1984 at the home of Joanna Carson, the fourth wife of talk-show host Johnny Carson.
On a lighter note, there are also some notable birthdays today. Say what? James Bond is eighty?

| Sean Connery in all his 007 FINEness |
Is this a special date for you? A birthday or anniversary perhaps?

In Cold Blood was a chilling but amazing book. And I dearly love To Kill A Mockingbird. Both movies made from those books were good too.
I never paid any attention to Sean Connery in his 007 days, and didn't really understand the appeal. But then I head him speak and OH MY. :-)
Not a special day for me, but my wedding anniversary is next week.
Linda, congrats on your anniversary next week.
And about Mr. Connery's voice, I KNOW, right?
