It’s not just Dawn Wells with a personal memoir. You guessed it, Tina Louise also wrote one titled Sunday. Actually, it’s not so much of a fluid memoir, but rather, a collection of memoirs. Her aim was to aid teenagers and young girls that maybe are not in school or even had kids very young. Within the books, the star also shares her own experience of being sent to boarding school between the ages of 6 and 8.

Not A Dime

Hard to believe we know but most of the cast from Gilligan’s Island did not become rich from the show. Not even Gilligan himself, well, we mean Bob Denver, but anyway. The majority of the Gilligan’s Island cast only retained residual rights until 1968. That’s because they never predicted this show would become so huge. Mostly, the cast thought it was a fun project to add their resume. Everyone but Dawn Wells who as we mentioned, had a special clause in her contract to retain all rights.
