Ray Stevens is celebrating his 85th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter-comedian Ray Stevens (The Streak, Everything Is Beautiful, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 85th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Stevens, a cultural icon
