Joshua Jackson is celebrating his 47th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-director Joshua Jackson (Fringe, Dawson's Creek, The Mighty Ducks, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 47th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Jackson, a cultural icon

Born Joshua Carter Jackson in Vancouver on June 11, 1978, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Jackson'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 Joshua hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Joshua Jackson as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 47.

Happy Birthday, Joshua, you're the best!
