Popular actor Mr. T (The A-Team, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 73rd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Mr. T, a cultural icon

Born Laurence Tureaud in Chicago on May 21, 1952, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Mr. T'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 Mr. T hasn't done.
