British actress Ingrid Bergman was probably most famous for her role in the huge movie hit,Casablanca. She received seven Oscar nods, three of which she won. She was born and died on August 29, passing away in the early 1980s. She was not only talented, but extremely beautiful as well. Apparently Roberto Rossellini thought so too. He and Bergman were involved in an affair, which occurred behind the scenes and culminated in Bergman becoming pregnant with Rossellini’s child. Amazingly, Bergman was able to recover from the extramarital affair, and she continued to work well into her golden years. She was 67 years old when she died.
19. William Shakespeare

While some say that Shakespeare died on his birthday, others are more skeptical about it. The playwright lived a long time ago; back in the 16th century. Therefore, there is a bit of debate about Shakespeare’s death. He died young, as was the norm back in the day. Add to that the fact that there were so many diseases floating around, and it becomes quite easy to understand why the details of his death are a bit blurry. What with all of the typhus, pneumonia, and tuberculosis going around, it seemed that people were dropping like flies left and right!
