Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on December 02, 1958)

Happy Birthday, James Brock! May your day be filled with more laughter than a pumpkin patch at midnight and more poetic inspiration than an academy of caffeinated poets. Your brilliant play "The Pumpkin Grower" continues to charm audiences, proving once again that gourds can indeed steal the spotlight.

Congratulations on another year of literary triumphs—from earning prestigious honors like the American Academy of Poets Prize and National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship to captivating readers with your unforgettable collection "Saints of Hysteria." Here's wishing you endless creativity, theatrical adventures, and enough cake-induced hysteria today to inspire yet another masterpiece!
