Catherine O'Hara is celebrating her 71st birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.
Popular actress-author-comedienne Catherine O'Hara (Best in Show, Home Alone, Schitt's Creek, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 71st birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.
O'Hara, a cultural icon
Born Catherine Anne O'Hara in Toronto on March 4, 1954, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. O'Hara's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Catherine hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Catherine O'Hara as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 71.
Happy Birthday, Catherine, you're the best!
