I looked it up and was kind of shocked - I hardly recognized any of the names, and only "giants" were Kurt Vonnegut and Fyodor Dostoyevsky, unless you also count Demi Moore and Leonardo DiCaprio.However, I do share a birthday with:

 

Frans Snyders, Flemish animal painter

Brian Wilson (the murderer, not the Beach Boy)

Jigme Singye Wangchuk, king of Bhutan

Corrine Brown, American politician convicted on corruption charges

Kemal Sunal, the famous Turkish actor

Yisrael Eldad, British extremist politician

Helena Konopacka, Polish discus thrower (Olympic gold 1928)

 

And of course, who could forget Maulana Azad, 1st minister of education in independent India?

 

BMD has much cooler Birthday Buddies.

I finally looked. Here's just some of the famous people I've heard of that share my birthday:

 

In no particular order -

 

Kurt Cobain - Father of grunge music

Rihanna - Even I know who she is

Nancy Wilson - The jazz singer, not the one of Heart

Chris Thile - Great mandolin player, took over for, but can never replace the story teller Garrison Kiellor's A Prairie Home Companion

Robert Altman - Film and TV director and producer. His final film was A Prairie Home Companion, a fictional story about Kiellor's radio sho

Ansel Adams - An idol when I was doing photography

Walter Becker - Who here doesn't know Walter Becker?

Ludwig Boltzmann - Where would physics be without his constant?

Randy California - the real spirit behind the band Spirit

Patty Hearst - Famous for many things, heiress, kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army, robbed banks, pardoned by Bill Clinton

Ken Olsen - Founded Digital Equipment Corp - Quoted as saying "There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home." He acknowledged this statement with which most of us don't agree today, but he meant it in the context of a computer that controls a home, which is creeping up on us faster than some of us wish.

Ivana Trump - Got away while the getting was good

When I discovered that me,

Lyndon Baines Johnson

& Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman)

all had the same birthday [ diff yrs, of course ]

it cured me of all belief in

The Magic Science of Astrology

as a definer of personality.

:facepalm:

I think that I was sort of trying to say the same thing (see my earlier post).
