Dax Shepard is celebrating his 50th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-comedian Dax Shepard (Parenthood, Hit and Run, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 50th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Shepard, a cultural icon

Born Dax Randall Shepard in Milford on January 2, 1975, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Shepard'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 Dax hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Dax Shepard as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 50.

Happy Birthday, Dax, you're the best!
