Nina posted this so I’d thought I’d give it a try.
1) Go to Wikipedia
2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year.
3) List three events that happened on your birthday
4) List two important birthdays and one death
5) One holiday or observance (if any)
Here’s what I came up with:
Events:
1) The world-famous dwarfs General Tom Thumb and Lavinia Warren get married in New York City.
2) 1897 – Freedom of religion in Madagascar
3) 1967 – The 25th Amendment to the United States Constitution ratified.
4) 1949 – Arthur Miller’s play Death of a Salesman premiered in New York City. (I had to put this fourth one in here only because it is eerily related to the death referenced below.)
Births:
1) 1955 – Greg Norman, Australian golfer
2) 1961 – George Stephanopoulos, American political commentator
Death:
1) 2005 – Arthur Miller, American playwright (b. 1915)
Holiday/Observance:
1) Italy – National Memorial Day of the Exiles and Foibe to commemorate Italian Istrian and Dalmatian exiles and Foibe massacres.
