If you haven’t already figured it out, today is my birthday. For the last 26 years, I’ve had to live with being born on Christmas Eve. I won’t bore you with my life’s story but I’ll just say that it isn’t as great as it sounds.
I haven’t had to deal with this alone, however, as my twin brother (yes, I am a twin but not the identical kind) and uncle are also born on Christmas Eve. We are not the only ones born on that day so I have shared a few more famous names who were also born on Christmas Eve along with some background information (courtesy biography.com).
- Kate Spade (fashion designer)
- Ricky Martin (singer)
- Stephenie Meyer (author)
- Howard Hughes (producer)
- Louis Tomlinson (singer)
- Ryan Seacrest (lots of stuff on TV and radio)
- Lee Daniels (director/producer)
- Charles Ng (murderer)
- Kit Carson (military leader/explorer/folk hero)
- Mary Higgins Clark (author)
- Eddie Dodson (thief)
- William Paterson (U.S. governor/supreme court justice/U.S. representative/lawyer)
- Robert Joffrey (ballet dancer/choreographer)
- Ava Gardner (actress)
- Hamid Karzai (president of Afghanistan)
- Baby Dodds (drummer)
I hope that everyone has a great Christmas. I will be gone for the next couple of days but do not hesitate to reach me on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
