Jeff Richmond is celebrating his 65th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed composers of his generation.

Popular composer-actor-director-producer Jeff Richmond (30 Rock, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 65th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Richmond, a cultural icon

Born Jeffrey Wayne Richmond in Portage County on January 7, 1961, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Richmond'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 Jeff hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jeff Richmond as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 65.
