Rolf Harris is celebrating his 96th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor-singer-composer-director Rolf Harris (Two Little Boys, Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 96th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Harris, a cultural icon
Born in Perth on March 30, 1930, Rolf Harris' career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Australian history. Harris' 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 Rolf hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Rolf Harris as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 96.
Happy Birthday, Rolf, you're the best!
