Jane Campion is celebrating her 70th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed directors of her generation.

Popular director-screenwriter-producer Jane Campion (The Piano, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 70th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Campion, a cultural icon

Born in Wellington on April 30, 1954, Jane Campion's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in history. Campion's not just a great director, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Jane hasn't done.

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

Happy Birthday, Jane, you're the best!
