Born today, you thrive on doing things for an audience, whether it is one that has formally assembled or gathered spontaneously, whether it is supportive or critical, whether its members have much or little in common with you. The fact is that communication of all kinds is essential to you and your way of life, and you are almost certain to make communication the centerpiece of a long and lucrative career. What you have to say is worth hearing, and you can often be found sharing your views freely with those who want to listen -- and they are many! You have a style all your own that commands attention, and a way with words that cuts through all barriers.
When it comes to your personal life, you are not always as adept at saying what needs to be said to friends and loved ones. Oddly, you sometimes suffer from an untimely bashfulness or self-consciousness that prevents you from being totally honest. This can, if left unchecked, affect your relationships.
Also born on this date are: Johnny Cash, singer-songwriter; Erykah Badu, singer; Michael Bolton, singer; Jackie Gleason, actor and comedian; Fats Domino, musician; Victor Hugo, author; William Frawley, actor; Buffalo Bill Cody, hunter and entertainer; Tony Randall, actor; Robert Alda, actor; Ariel Sharon, Israeli leader; Betty Hutton, actress.
