[edit] Life and career
Sheldon was born Sidney Schechtel in Chicago, Illinois to a German
Jewish father and a Russian Jewish mother. At 10, he made his first
sale, $10 for a poem. During the Depression, he worked at a variety of
jobs, attended Northwestern University and contributed short plays to
drama groups.
In 1937 he moved to Hollywood, California where he reviewed scripts
and collaborated on a number of B-movies. After serving in the
military during World War II as a pilot in the War Training Service, a
branch of the Army Air Corps, Sheldon returned to civilian life and
moved to New York where began writing musicals for the Broadway stage
while continuing to write screenplays for both MGM Studios and
Paramount Pictures. He earned a reputation as a prolific writer, for
example at one time he had three musicals on Broadway: a rewritten
"The Merry Widow," "Jackpot" and "Dream with Music." His success on
Broadway brought him back to Hollywood where his first assignment was
The Bachelor and the Bobbysoxer which earned him the Academy Award for
best original screenplay of 1947.
When television became the new hot medium he decided to try his hand
in it. "I suppose I needed money," he remembered. "I met Patty Duke
one day at lunch. So I produced The Patty Duke Show, and I did
something nobody else in TV ever did. For seven years, I wrote almost
every single episode of the series."[1] He also wrote for the series
Hart to Hart and Nancy. Most famously he wrote the series I Dream of
Jeannie, which he also created and produced, which lasted for five
seasons from 1965-1970. It was "During the last year of I Dream of
Jeannie, I decided to try a novel," he said in 1982. "Each morning
from 9 until noon, I had a secretary at the studio take all calls. I
mean every single call. I wrote each morning =E2=80=94 or rather, dictated =
=E2=80=94
and then I faced the TV business."[1]
In 1969, Sheldon wrote his first novel, The Naked Face which earned
him the Best First Novel Edgar Allan Poe Award from the Mystery
Writers of America. His next novel, The Other Side of Midnight, went
to #1 on the New York Times bestseller list as did several ensuing
novels, a number of which were also made into motion pictures or TV
miniseries.
His novels often featured determined women who persevere in a tough
world run by hostile men.[1] The novels contained a lot of suspense
and devices to keep the reader turning the page:[1]
"I try to write my books so the reader can't put them down," he
explained in a 1982 interview. "I try to construct them so when the
reader gets to the end of a chapter, he or she has to read just one
more chapter. It's the technique of the old Saturday afternoon serial:
leave the guy hanging on the edge of the cliff at the end of the
chapter."
Most of his readers were women. Asked why this was the case he said:
"I like to write about women who are talented and capable, but most
important, retain their femininity. Women have tremendous power =E2=80=94
their femininity, because men can't do without it."[1] Books were
Sheldon's favorite medium. "I love writing books," he commented.
"Movies are a collaborative medium, and everyone is second-guessing
you. When you do a novel you're on your own. It's a freedom that
doesn't exist in any other medium."[1]
Sheldon was married for 30 years to Jorja Curtright Sheldon, a stage
and film actress, who died in 1985 and he married Alexandra Kostoff, a
former child actress and advertising executive, in 1989.[1]
He struggled with bipolar disorder for years; he nearly committed
suicide at 17.[citation needed]
Sheldon died from complications arising from pneumonia in 2007.[1]
[edit] Awards
Over the years, Sheldon wrote for television, film, and stage, winning
an Academy Award for Writing Original Screenplay (1947) for The
Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer, a Tony Award (1959) for his musical
Redhead, and earned an Emmy Award for his work on I Dream of Jeannie,
an NBC sitcom.

Gooday/Hi peoplez !
Most of my favorite peoplez (unless U grew up in England) would have
grown up
in the late 60's & early 70's watching Barbara Eden strut her stuff in
front of
Major Anthony Nelson (Larry Hagman).
The very first eposode of I Dream of Jeannie gave your dear old Uncle
Wally his
very first woody !!!!
If U don't believe me, then buy the frickin' DVD !!!
it was a sexy first for primetime sitcom television to have Eden sitting in
Hagman's shirt with only a pair of undies on underneath, still one of the
hottest sitcom scenes ever.
do a net search, some photographer back in the day took a lot of shots of
her. one pic has her nipples sticking out. originally this was common but
the photos normally never saw the light of day and were discarded as they
would never have made money. recently the picture was found in an old
collection and released. phroaw!

Jeannie didn't have nipples. Genies are eternal beings that never had to
evolve nipples because they don't procreate. If you don't make babies
nipples are useless.
Same reason that she really didn't have a belly button. That was just a
place to flick your ashes.
