Danielle Fernandes Dominique Schuelein-Steel (born August 14, 1947), better known as Danielle Steel, is an American romantic novelist and author of mainstream dramas.
Best known for drama and romance novels, Steel has sold more than 800 million copies of her books (as of 2005) worldwide and is the fourth best selling writer of all time, and is currently the bestselling author alive. Her novels have been on the New York Times bestseller list for over 390 consecutive weeks and 22 have been adapted for television.
Steel was born in New York City, the only child of Norma da Câmara Stone dos Reis and John Schulein-Steel. Her father was a German Jewish immigrant, a descendant of the founders of Löwenbräu beer. Her mother, born in Portugal, was the daughter of a diplomat. Steel was raised Catholic and had wanted to be a nun during her early years. She spent much of her childhood in France, where from an early age she was included in her parents' dinner parties, giving her an opportunity to observe the habits and lives of the wealthy and famous. Her parents divorced when she was eight, however, and she was raised primarily in New York City and Europe by her father, rarely seeing her mother.

Plot: If the Ahmeds have a collective motto at all, it is, 'Mind Everybody's Business'. From Amma to Abdul, everyone is forever getting involved in everyone else's problems, work, business, hassles, happiness, whatever. But they are not very good at co-ordinating their efforts. As a result, they often end up working at cross purposes. Matters are frequently complicated by a motley collection of allied characters - relatives, friends, envious neighbors, old flames, new suitors, perfect strangers, etc. - who compound the family's already dangerous propensity for disaster. As each situation develops, the collapse of the Raees Ahmed family seems imminent. Disaster is averted, but only in the nick of time and at any rate not before the members of the family have been on an emotional roller coaster ride that leaves them breathless and the television audience in splits.

Trying to save the world while your daddy is dying
with your safety net
Everything's changed, now my songs make you cry and
I feel you, Daddy I feel you, Daddy
Fed by your father, your days were your own
you're on your own now
Head in the starts, now I'm fully grown, but
