Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on January 26, 1983)

Happy Birthday, Stephen Lea Sheppard! From your unforgettable portrayal of Harris Trinsky in "Freaks and Geeks" to the quirky Dudley Heinsbergen in Wes Anderson's classic film "The Royal Tenenbaums," you've consistently brought humor, charm, and authenticity into every role. Your unique talent for capturing awkward yet endearing characters has left audiences laughing—and sometimes cringing—in all the best ways.

As you celebrate another year around the sun today, may it be filled with as many laughs as you've given us over time. Here's hoping this birthday brings new adventures that rival even your most memorable on-screen moments—cake included!
