The Birth of a Legend: How Little Stephen King Became the "King of Horror"
Stephen Edwin King was born on September 21, 1947, in Portland, Maine, USA. King's mother was diagnosed with infertility, so the family already had an adopted boy. But a few years later Stephen was born, and it was a true miracle.
