Nicholas Lea is celebrating his 64th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Nicholas Lea (Kyle XY, The X-Files, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 64th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Lea, a cultural icon

Born Nicholas Christopher Herbert in New Westminster on June 22, 1962, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Lea'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 Nicholas hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Nicholas Lea as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 64.

Happy Birthday, Nicholas, you're the best!
