Erich Segal, June 16, 1937 – January 17, 2010
Erich Segal passed away two days ago. Segal wrote the book, Love Story, which later became the Oscar-winning 1970 film. He suffered a heart attack in his home in London.
Why I’m writing about Segal? My mom loved this film so much that she named me after the main girl 
.
He was 72. Read more at BBC.
