Emily Deschanel is celebrating her 49th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.
Popular actress-producer Emily Deschanel (Bones, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 49th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.
Deschanel, a cultural icon
Born Emily Erin Deschanel in Los Angeles on October 11, 1976, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Deschanel'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 Emily hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Emily Deschanel as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 49.
Happy Birthday, Emily, you're the best!
