Multi-talented Sidney Sheldon has both a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a Golden Palm on the Palm Springs Walk of Stars. His five-decade career saw him achieve success in nearly every realm of entertainment. He won an Academy Award for his screenplay for The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer and a Tony Award for his musical Redhead. As a producer, he was responsible for the iconic I Dream of Jeannie, for which he also wrote most of the scripts. In his fifties, he left cinema behind and started to write novels. His 18 novels, including the New York Times Bestseller The Other Side of Midnight, have sold over 300 million copies, making him one of the best-selling writers of all time. Sheldon died in 2007, just twelve days shy of his 90th birthday. Sidney’s longtime home in Palm Springs, recently fully updated and remodeled, is now for sale at $8.95 million.
