Let's make this birthday one to remember.

59 years old (Born on August 24, 1965)

Happy Birthday to the phenomenal Marlee Matlin! From captivating us in 'Children of a Lesser God' and making history as the youngest actress ever—and first deaf performer—to win an Academy Award, you've continuously wowed audiences with charisma both on stage and screen. Whether fighting passionately for justice in "The West Wing," or dancing gracefully through barriers on “Dancing With The Stars,” your charm is loud enough for everyone.

Another year means more brilliance coming from you: advocating powerfully off-screen, breaking down boundaries effortlessly onscreen, always showing that true talent speaks louder than words—or signed language interpretations—ever could. Have an amazing birthday filled with laughs brighter than Oval Office banter!
