Let's make this birthday one to remember.

81 years old (Born on March 28, 1944)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Ken Howard! From your unforgettable role as Coach Reeves in "The White Shadow," you've inspired generations with humor, heart, and a whistle that could silence any gymnasium. Your ability to blend tough love with comedic timing made every episode timeless—proving once again that basketball shorts from the '70s can indeed be iconic.

Whether mentoring troubled teens on-screen or charming audiences off-camera, you’ve consistently scored big points throughout your career. Here's hoping this birthday brings laughter louder than locker-room pep talks and joy brighter than stadium lights. Keep shining brightly—you'll always remain our favorite coach!
