Forest Whitaker is celebrating his 62nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor Forest Whitaker (The Butler, The Last King of Scotland, Bird, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 62nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Whitaker, a cultural icon
Born Forest Steven Whitaker in Longview on July 15, 1961, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Whitaker's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Forest hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Forest Whitaker as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 62.
Happy Birthday, Forest, you're the best!
