July 31, 1980 (I’m going with 1980 and not getting involved in the 1979 controversy) –
Harry Potter, an orphan who discovers that he is a wizard was born on this dates.
J K Rowlings, the Harry Potter brand author, and unfortunately loony bigot, shares a birthday with her creation (born 1965). Her ‘children’s stories‘ have made her a billionaire.
Who knew an orphaned kid with a facial birthmark could make someone so much money?
