James Cameron is celebrating his 70th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed directors of his generation.

Popular director-screenwriter James Cameron (Avatar, Titanic, Aliens, The Terminator, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 70th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Cameron, a cultural icon

Born James Francis Cameron in Kapuskasing on August 16, 1954, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Cameron's not just a great director, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little James hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for James Cameron as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 70.

Happy Birthday, James, you're the best!
