I remember getting weird looks in middle school asking everyone what September 11th is... and announcing "It's Herbert Lom's birthday!!!"

Bridget Jones was born on Sept. 24 in 1965. No not that Bridget Jones, some Bridget Jones who spoofed Adrienne Barbeau on MST3K  . She is now Mike Nelson's husband. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0427638/

Upon closer inspection the late(s) Jim Henson and Phil Hartman also shared my birthday. They are the most famous I can find right now.
