Happy 77th birthday to Robert Culp. I enjoyed your tributes Tatia and Becca. Listening to the radio this morning I realized that he shares a birthday with another guy whose career I have taken a keen interest in, the pianist Bill Evans (16 August 1929 – 15 September 1980). I’m surprised I hadn’t noticed that before. Now I was inspired. My soul was aflame and I would not be denied. I continued my quest and found:

He shares a birthday with Leslie Ann Warren, Madonna and Edie Gorme. He and Frank Gifford (the football player and announcer) were born on the same day. Kathy Lee Gifford was also born on 16 August, in 1953 (that must save on party expenses). I haven’t experienced a rush like this since I discovered a few years ago that my father and Stan Lee were born on the same day: 28 December 1922. I’m going to go lie down.
