Zhang Ziyi is celebrating her 46th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed actresses of her generation.

Popular actress Zhang Ziyi (Memoirs of a Geisha, House of Flying Daggers, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 46th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Ziyi, a cultural icon

Born in Beijing on February 9, 1979, Zhang Ziyi's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Chinese history. Ziyi's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Zhang hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Zhang Ziyi as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 46.

Happy Birthday, Zhang, you're the best!
