Let's make this birthday one to remember.

68 years old (Born on April 23, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Caroline Thompson! May your day be as delightfully quirky and charmingly peculiar as the worlds you've crafted. From giving Edward Scissorhands his gentle heart to breathing life (or afterlife?) into Corpse Bride's whimsical romance, you’ve shown us that scissors can indeed beat paper—especially when writing unforgettable stories.

Here's hoping this year brings even more magical inspiration—and fewer run-ins with misunderstood characters wielding sharp objects or undead brides seeking happily-ever-afters. Keep enchanting audiences; we can't wait for your next imaginative adventure! Cheers to another chapter filled with creativity, laughter, and just enough spooky charm to keep things interesting.
