Let's make this birthday one to remember.

74 years old (Born on December 12, 1950)

Happy Birthday, Duane Chase! From charming audiences as Kurt von Trapp in "The Sound of Music," you've certainly climbed every mountain and sung your way into our hearts. Who knew that the mischievous kid who once sang about his favorite things would become everyone's timeless favorite himself?

Whether modeling or appearing in commercials since age eleven, you’ve always had a knack for stealing scenes—and smiles! Here's hoping this birthday is filled with laughter louder than Maria's singing lessons and joy sweeter than crisp apple strudel. Keep making life's hills alive with humor—after all these years, you're still sixteen going on seventeen at heart!
