9/5 Most people know Josephine Sarah “Sadie” Marcus-Earp as the Jewish wife of the famous Wild West frontiersman, Wyatt Earp. But she was sowing her wild oats—and elaborate lies—long before any man entered the picture.

9/12 This American sweetheart dazzled the country with music hits like “Buttons and Bows” and an impressive TV career. But behind all the glitz and glamor, Dinah Shore hid the details of a turbulent life.

9/19 Long-haired and beautiful, singer-songwriter Carly Simon had a series of affairs that caught the attention of many. But behind the image of her laughing with the era’s heartthrobs was non-stop struggle and heartbreak.

9/26 With her drop-dead gorgeous looks, it seemed inevitable that Ava Gardner would become one of the biggest stars of Hollywood’s golden age—and she lived a glamorous lifestyle to boot.
