Just thought I'd start another game, this time we're going to see what famous people were born/died on your birthday. I prefer the same year and day, but if there's none to be found, just the day is fine too.
Let's begin!
On July 24th 1987, Mara Willson was born. She was a child actress but hasn't appeared in any films recently (latest was 2001), and instead became a stage actress and is attending New York Uni, according to Wikipedia:

Hmm, that was actually an interesting read, made my celebrity seem shallow compared to a friend of Hitler.

My birth heralded the eruption of Mount St. Helens.

All I got so far is the drummer from Cradle of Filth. :grr:

Hey, at least you don't share a birthday with 50 cent and George W. Bush. :(
On the exact date though, I have the birth of a football player, the death of an Indian politician, and the first American victory in the Tour de France.

My generally-shared birthday is better. John Cleese, Roy Lichtenstein, Teddy Roosevelt, Dylan Thomas, and Kelly Osbourne.
Oh, and Captain James Cook, apparently.
