Rest in Peace

Olivia Goldsmith was 54. She was an author who penned "The First Wives Club" which sold millions of copies and became a number one film in 1996 starring Goldie Hawn, Diane Keaton and Bette Midler.
Much like Uta Hagen, I read of Olivia Goldmith's passing and didn't immediately post it here because I had never heard of her. I consider myself well educated in the field of popular culture so I assume if I haven't heard of a celebrity they aren't really that famous. I've learned there are at least two exceptions to this rule: when the fame is acquired on Broadway and when the fame is aquired for writing a book no man would ever read. Olivia Goldsmith has been added to the list.
