Whose birthday is it, January 17?

Betty White is ninety eight years young today!
I have on disc an episode of Millionaire, when she played the part of a burger serving cafe waitress in Keokuk, Iowa, who receives that secret dose of a million dollars. In the show, a secret benefactor would give a million dollars to some worthy person via courier with a cashier’s check. The condition was they could tell nobody where they got it, except a spouse.
She took her friend to Europe. There she met a man who turned out to be the prince of a family in financial ruin.
Since then she has entertained millions of fans in many different roles. She’s a playful girl, and probably has never made an enemy in her life.

Happy birthday, Betty!

Are there any memories of her you wish to share?

Is there someone else whose birthday we should I observe today?
