This is the last day for Leo birthdays. Lions represent! Born on this day: famed writer Dorothy Parker; actress Honor Blackman, who played Bond girl Pussy Galore; Annie Proulx, author of Brokeback Mountain; singer/songwriter Tori Amos; Buddhist actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, known for his characters on Oz and Lost; and Saturday Night Live funny lady Kristen Wiig.
