Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on February 26, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Christopher Maleki! From your unforgettable days on "Passions," where you brought drama and charm to daytime TV screens everywhere, you've always known how to keep us glued (and occasionally yelling at) our televisions. Your talent for turning soap opera chaos into pure entertainment is legendary—seriously, nobody does dramatic pauses quite like you!

And now you're capturing life's best moments behind the lens as a photographer; clearly there's no end to your creative talents. May this birthday be filled with laughter brighter than studio lights and memories more timeless than any cliffhanger episode of Passions ever was!
