John Goodman is celebrating his 73rd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor John Goodman (Kong: Skull Island, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, The Big Lebowski, Roseanne, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 73rd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Goodman, a cultural icon
Born John Stephen Goodman in St. Louis on June 20, 1952, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Goodman'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 John hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for John Goodman as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 73.
Happy Birthday, John, you're the best!
