  Is LeVar Burton secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

LeVar Burton is celebrating his 68th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor-television host-director-author LeVar Burton (Star Trek: The Next Generation, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 68th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Burton, a cultural icon

Born Levardis Robert Martyn Burton, Jr. in Landstuhl on February 16, 1957, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Burton'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 LeVar hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for LeVar Burton as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 68.

Happy Birthday, LeVar, you're the best!
