Hans Zimmer is celebrating his 67th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed composers of his generation.

Popular composer Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 67th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Zimmer, a cultural icon

Born Hans Florian Zimmer in Frankfurt on September 12, 1957, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in German history. Zimmer's not just a great composer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Hans hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Hans Zimmer as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 67.
