The 1975 novel "Jaws" was written by Peter Benchley
The screenplay for the movie was written by Peter Benchley, Carl Gottleib and Howard Sackler.
The novel was based on true events that occurred off of a Jersey Beach in 1916. In progress of developing the film, Benchley was asked by director Steven Spielberg to appear in the major motion picture as the news reporter. Spielberg also casted Gottleib if he'd take on the role of the mayor's assistant for the town of Amity Island.
In real life, someone was killed by a shark in a lake. Scientists initially thought that was impossible since sharks live only in salt water. Turns out, a bull shark can live in fresh water also. A few months later, remains of a human was found in a great white, not a bull.
