Danai Gurira is celebrating her 48th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.
Popular actress Danai Gurira (All Eyez on Me, The Walking Dead, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 48th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.
Gurira, a cultural icon
Born Danai Jekesai Gurira in Grinnell on February 14, 1978, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Gurira'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 Danai hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Danai Gurira as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 48.
Happy Birthday, Danai, you're the best!
