Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on April 23, 1942)

Happy Birthday, Barry Hannah! Celebrating the literary genius who gave us unforgettable rides through "Geronimo Rex" and soared high with "Airships." Your stories have always been as wild and unpredictable as a Mississippi thunderstorm—full of wit, charm, and just enough chaos to keep readers delightfully off-balance.

From Pulitzer Prize nominations to National Book Award nods, your words continue to resonate. You've shown us that literature can be both profound and hilarious—often at the same time. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with laughter, inspiration, and perhaps fewer plot twists than your novels (though we wouldn't count on it!).
