The following is a sampling of errors contained in various editions of the People Entertainment Almanac.

Eddie Albert (actor) - Some editions erroneously report he was born in "1908."
Correction: Because he was born out of wedlock, his mother altered his birth certificate to read "1908." His son, Edward Albert (also an actor), confirmed Eddie was actually born in 1906 in Rock Island, Illinois. Consult Eddie Albert's profile for more information.


Barbara Bush (Former First Lady) - Some editions erroneously report she was born in "Rye, New York."
Correction: She was born at Booth Memorial Hospital, in New York City, New York, not Rye, New York, where she was raised. Mrs. Bush specifically addresses this issue in her autobiography and confirms her New York City birth. For additional in-depth biographical data, visit our biography of Barbara Bush.


Richard Harris (actor/singer) - Some editions mistakenly claim he was born in "1933."
Correction: He was born October 1st, 1930, at 11:20 a.m. GDT (10:20 GMT), in Limerick, Ireland. This is the date and time of birth Richard himself reported as his precise time of birth, and has subsequently been verified by many researchers. Additional biographical data can be found in our profile of Richard Harris.


Katharine Hepburn (actress) - Some early editions erroneously report her date of birth as 11/8/07.
Correction: Ms. Hepburn was born May 12th, 1907, at 5:47 p.m., at 22 Hudson Street, in Hartford, Connecticut. For additional in-depth biographical data, visit our biography of Katharine Hepburn.


Walter Matthau (actor) - Some editions erroneously report his real name as "Walter Matuschanskavasky."
Correction: His family has repeatedly verified that Walter John Matthow was his actual name at birth. Consult Walter Matthau's profile for more information.


It is not our intent to denigrate this fine publication, but merely to point out the above inaccuracies to prevent further dissemination of the erroneous data.
