I missed this one. You might want to see this web page on the history. It has some valuable information.

For a very important article on the Serenity Prayer I am writing on deadline, I need a few statements from prominent sources attesting to the fame of the Serenity Prayer. I would welcome suggestions of statements about its being one of the most famous prayers of all time, about its influence on the lives of prominent people or large numbers of ordinary people, or about its importance in Alcoholics Anonymous, as well as references to the SP in important works of literature or other important books or films or songs. Because I am on deadline, responses today or tomorrow would be particularly valuable.
I already know about the references in the Wikipedia article on the Serenity Prayer.
