Popular religious figure The Dalai Lama has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 89th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
The Dalai Lama, a cultural icon
Born Tenzin Gyatso in Taktser on July 6, 1935, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Tibetan history. The Dalai Lama's not just a great religious figure, he's an inspiration, an icon. At this point in his career, there seems to be little The Dalai Lama hasn't done.

Happy Birthday, The Dalai Lama, you're the best!
