Bob Dylan is celebrating his 83rd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter-musician-poet Bob Dylan (Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Like a Rolling Stone, Blowin' in the Wind, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 83rd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Dylan, a cultural icon

Born in Duluth on May 24, 1941, Bob Dylan's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Dylan's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Bob hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Bob Dylan as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 83.

Happy Birthday, Bob, you're the best!
