The great author and dramatist Anton Chekhov was born on January 29, 1860, in Taganrog, Rostov Oblast, Russia. A hundred years later to the day, in Philadelphia, came the birth of the model Gia Carangi, who would later be memorably portrayed by Angelina Jolie in the HBO original movie ‘Gia.’
Coincidence? Not unless you let it be. As Chekhov said, ‘Only entropy comes easy.’
