Let's make this birthday one to remember.

65 years old (Born on July 09, 1959)

Happy Birthday, Paul Lisicky! May your day be as vibrant and memorable as the pages of "Lawnboy," and may you celebrate with more enthusiasm than a creative writing workshop at NYU on pizza night. Your memoirs have taught us that life is best lived boldly—so here's hoping this year brings even more adventures worth chronicling.

From Sarah Lawrence to Cornell, you've inspired countless students (and readers!) to embrace their inner storyteller. Today we toast not just another chapter in your life's narrative but also all those brilliant moments yet unwritten. Keep building famously—and remember: age is merely punctuation!
