Popular director Curtis Hanson (Wonder Boys, L.A. Confidential, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 79th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Hanson, a cultural icon

Born Curtis Lee Hanson in Reno on March 24, 1945, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Hanson's not just a great director, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Curtis hasn't done.
