Tell me a bio of Harold Robbins.
Harold Robbins (July 21, 1916 – July 31, 1997) was an American novelist, known for his bestselling novels that often dealt with themes of sex, power, and wealth. He was born in New York City to Jewish parents and grew up in poverty during the Great Depression. After serving in the U.S. Army during World War II, Robbins worked as a copywriter and public relations executive before turning to writing full-time.

Robbins' first novel, "Never Love a Stranger," was published in 1949. However, it was his fifth novel, "The Carpetbaggers," published in 1961, that brought him international fame and fortune. The novel, which follows the rise of a young man in the post-Civil War South, was a massive success and spent over a year on the New York Times bestseller list. Robbins went on to write over 30 novels, many of which were also bestsellers.

Robbins was known for his meticulous research and attention to detail, often traveling extensively to gather material for his novels. He was also known for his larger-than-life personality and his many romantic liaisons. Robbins was married five times and had several extramarital affairs, some of which were the inspiration for his novels.

Despite his success, Robbins faced numerous controversies throughout his career. Some of his novels were criticized for their explicit sexual content, while others were accused of being plagiarized or based on real people and events without permission. Robbins was also the subject of several lawsuits, including one in which he was accused of defamation by a former lover.

Robbins continued to write and publish novels until his death in 1997, at the age of 81. He left behind a legacy of bestselling novels that continue to be read and enjoyed around the world. Robbins' works have been translated into over 40 languages and have sold over 750 million copies worldwide.
