Tim Gunn is celebrating his 72nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed television hosts of his generation.

Popular television host Tim Gunn (Project Runway, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 72nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Gunn, a cultural icon

Born Timothy M. Gunn in Washington, D.C. on July 29, 1953, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Gunn's not just a great television host, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Tim hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Tim Gunn as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 72.

Happy Birthday, Tim, you're the best!
