Let's make this birthday one to remember.

76 years old (Born on March 03, 1949)

Happy birthday, Ron Chernow! May your celebration be richer than Rockefeller's fortune and more memorable than a Hamilton musical number. You've mined history’s golden vaults for stories, proving the pen truly is mightier—and funnier—than Wall Street.

Thank you for making financial dynasties riveting and founding fathers irresistible page-turners. Your Pulitzer-winning insights have changed how we view America's past; let's hope today you pause from chronicling titans to celebrate yourself. After all, no historical figure you've covered could match your gift of turning biographies into blockbuster sensations—the most enviable kind of success indeed. Cheers to many more chapters!
