Happy Birthday Tina Fey

The first female head-writer at Saturday Night Live, Tina Fey was also a standout cast member on that show - combining class and insouciance at the Weekend Update news desk while poking fun of her shortcomings as an actor and impressionist in regular sketches; she shares similar duties in the current NBC sitcom 30 Rock, the single best of its genre in its first run on television today.  

Fey also wrote and co-starred in the 2004 film Mean Girls and the 2008 film Baby Mama (with former SNL and Weekend Update co-star Amy Poehler).  In addition to appearing in The Invention of Lying alongside Ricky Gervais, Jennifer Garner, Rob Lowe, and Christopher Guest, her most recent foray into cinema has been Shawn Levy's rom-com-gone-wrong Date Night, in which co-starred with fellow NBC stalwart Steve Carell.
