Dan Aykroyd is celebrating his 72nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor-screenwriter-producer Dan Aykroyd (Ghostbusters, The Blues Brothers, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 72nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Aykroyd, a cultural icon
Born Daniel Edward Aykroyd in Ottawa on July 1, 1952, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Aykroyd'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 Dan hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Dan Aykroyd as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 72.
Happy Birthday, Dan, you're the best!
