Let's make this birthday one to remember.

94 years old (Born on April 12, 1930)

Happy Birthday, John! Pulitzer Prize winner, legendary journalist, and former president of the American Society of Newspaper Editors—your career has more highlights than a newsroom coffee pot. From your groundbreaking reporting in Indonesia that earned you journalism's highest honor in 1967 to steering The Christian Science Monitor with wisdom and wit, you've set standards few can match.

Even after decades shaping headlines and mentoring generations of journalists, your passion for truth remains timeless. May this birthday bring as much joy as your best scoops—and fewer deadlines! Here's to another year filled with laughter, good stories, and no corrections needed.
