Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on August 19, 1942)

Happy Birthday, Fred Thompson! From delivering justice on "Law & Order" to serving the nation as a distinguished U.S. Senator, you've always known how to keep an audience captivated—whether it's jurors or voters. Your seamless transition from courtroom drama to Capitol Hill proves you're equally adept at handling tough cross-examinations and tougher political debates.

Here's wishing you another year filled with memorable moments, witty comebacks, and perhaps fewer objections from opposing counsel—or senators! May your birthday be as timelessly entertaining as your best episodes and as successful as your impressive tenure in public service. Cheers to you, Fred!
