Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on September 14, 1977)

Happy birthday Aron Coleite! The writer behind some truly heroic storytelling—literally—from your groundbreaking work on NBC's hit series "Heroes," you've reminded us all that saving the world can be both complex and compelling. May your special day unfold with fewer plot twists than one of your scripts!

Thanks for giving audiences heroes we love, characters who could fly (and those who thought they might!), and storylines more addictive than birthday cake itself. Here's hoping this next chapter brings you continued creativity, success, laughter—and no drama from villains or superhuman colleagues. Cheers to many timeless stories ahead!
