Carly Simon is celebrating her 80th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Carly Simon (Let the River Run, Nobody Does It Better, You're So Vain, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 80th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Simon, a cultural icon

Born Carly Elisabeth Simon in New York on June 25, 1945, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Simon's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Carly hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Carly Simon as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 80.

Happy Birthday, Carly, you're the best!
