Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on June 29, 1951)

Happy Birthday, Willy Holtzman! Another year older, yet your gift for dialogue remains as fresh and vibrant as ever—proving that great playwrights never age; they simply accumulate better anecdotes. With your Peabody Award from 2005 and the Humanitas Prize in 2006 still gleaming on the mantelpiece, let's be honest; you're basically collecting awards like some folks collect fridge magnets.

As you celebrate today surrounded by family and friends—and possibly a character or two who wandered off one of your pages—it’s clear that life's best narrative is yours. Here's to you crafting creative moments well into every act ahead!
