Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown is celebrating his 74th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed politicians of his generation.
Popular politician Gordon Brown has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 74th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Brown, a cultural icon
Born James Gordon Brown in Renfrewshire on February 20, 1951, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Brown's not just a great politician, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Gordon hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Gordon Brown as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 74.
Happy Birthday, Gordon, you're the best!
