Let's make this birthday one to remember.

55 years old (Born on December 23, 1969)

Happy Birthday, Martha Byrne! From captivating us as Lily Walsh Snyder on "As The World Turns," you've proven that soap opera drama can be classy, timeless—and occasionally hilarious. Your talent for seamlessly switching from tearful confessions to witty comebacks has kept fans glued and entertained through every twist.

Whether you're dazzling audiences with your singing voice or crafting compelling stories behind the scenes as a television writer, you continue to inspire laughter and admiration alike. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer dramatic plot twists than Oakdale—but just enough excitement (and cake!) to keep things interesting. Cheers to another fabulous year ahead!
