76 years old (Born on January 18, 1949)
Happy Birthday, Bill Keller! Another year older and wiser—though we're pretty sure you peaked back in '89 when your Pulitzer-winning reporting helped dismantle the Soviet Union. Seriously, how many people can say their journalism literally changed world maps? We're still waiting for your next scoop on breaking up traffic jams or ending awkward elevator conversations.From covering historic events at The New York Times to inspiring countless journalists with your sharp insights and wit, you've set a high bar. May this birthday be as memorable as those glory days—and may no one ever fact-check how many candles are on that cake!
