Alan Alda


Happy Birthday to

Alan Alda

75 today


Born Alphonso D'Abruzzo in New York three quarters of a century ago, Alda has been constantly in demand as an actor and director since his TV debut in The Phil Silvers Show, but of curse he's best remembered for his role as Captain Pierce in TV's M*A*S*H. He's got a couple of big films coming this year, Tower Heist and Wanderlust, but I can't say I'm relishing the thought of them.
