Popular actor Jon Bernthal (The Walking Dead, Daredevil, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 50th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Bernthal, a cultural icon

Born Jonathan Edward Bernthal in Washington, D.C. on September 20, 1976, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Bernthal'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 Jon hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jon Bernthal as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 50.

Happy Birthday, Jon, you're the best!
