Her legendary career penning fiction novels about the glamorous lives of Hollywood’s rich, famous and infamous has spanned decades. Collins’ nearly 30 novels featuring a total of about 1,000 characters have sold more than 400 million copies.

Collins‘ introduction to Hollywood was far from the typical story.

As she tells it, she was thrown out of school in her native England when she was 15 years old. Her parents gave her an ultimatum: “reform school or Hollywood.”

“You know, I thought for a few minutes, I had a sister, a movie star in Hollywood and I [said] ‘I think I’ll take Hollywood.’ And so I wrote about it when I got there. I always knew I was going to be a writer,” Collins said on “Good Morning America” this morning.
