Popular actress Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 62nd birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Yeoh, a cultural icon

Born Michelle Yeoh Choo-Kheng in Ipoh on August 6, 1963, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Malaysian history. Yeoh's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Michelle hasn't done.
