Let's make this birthday one to remember.

76 years old (Born on September 13, 1948)

Happy Birthday, Ziggy Steinberg! You've scripted laughs for legends like David Steinberg, Debbie Reynolds, and George Carlin—proving that behind every great comedian is an even greater writer (and probably a coffee addiction). Your wit has aged better than fine wine; in fact, rumor has it your punchlines are still making Mary Tyler Moore toss her hat skyward.

From crafting timeless humor on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" to engineering stand-up gold that's kept audiences laughing through decades—you've truly mastered the art of comedy. May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've given us—and fewer rewrites!
