People born under the star sign of Cancer can have a ferocious temper, along with a compulsive and singular focus, which may have lead to Anna Hahn, born in 1906, to become a serial killer. German born Hahn was an American serial killer, who was sent to stay with family in America after she became pregnant as a teenager. Hahn had a gambling addiction and she robbed then killed her elderly victims to fund this habit.  In total she killed five people before she was caught, convicted and sentenced to death.
 

Most Cancers have a softer side though, and many enjoy performing. Richard Starkey or Ringo Starr as he is better known, used thischaracteristic as The Beatles drummer and lead singer on various Beatles songs including "Yellow Submarine".

Happy Birthday Donald DadHappy Birthday Donald DadThe Cancer star sign is said to be associated with the moon and maybe this is why George Hale entered the career which he did. Born today in 1868 Hale was an respected American astronomer. Hale also showed the Cancer characteristic of determination in his work to start a number of astronomical observatories including Mount Wilson Observatory and the Hale Solar Laboratory. Hale's determination was not just reserved for his own career, however, as he hired and encouraged other astronomers such as Harlow Shapley and Edwin Hubble with their work on some of the most significant discoveries of the time.
 
Another Cancer born today in 1951, who used his Cancer personality trait of creativity within his career, is comic book writer and illustrator Don Rosa. Think you don't know Rosa's work?  Think again.
