Hugh Bonneville is celebrating his 59th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Hugh Bonneville (Twenty Twelve, Notting Hill, Downton Abbey, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 59th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Bonneville, a cultural icon

Born Hugh Richard Bonneville Williams in London on November 10, 1963, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Bonneville'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 Hugh hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Hugh Bonneville as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 59.

Happy Birthday, Hugh, you're the best!
