Jaleel White is celebrating his 49th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor-screenwriter Jaleel White (Family Matters, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 49th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
White, a cultural icon
Born Jaleel Ahmad White in Pasadena on November 27, 1976, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. White'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 Jaleel hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jaleel White as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 49.
Happy Birthday, Jaleel, you're the best!
