Shining Stars Of The Golden Age Who Prove Age Is Just A Number

DICK VAN DYKE – MISSOURI, 97

It’s said that laughter is the best medicine, and that’s perhaps what has worked for legendary Golden Age actor-comedian and entertainer Dick Van Dyke since his debut in 1947. His award-laden career, spanning about seven and a half decades, has seen him feature in TV, movie, and stage productions.

Van Dyke, a former military officer, shot to fame in the 1961 original production of “Bye Bye Birdie” before going on to establish himself with great success in Hollywood. The 1925-born American thespian may be approaching 100 years old, but that hasn’t thawed his resolve to continue appearing on screen. He appeared in the 2022 documentary “The 90s Club.”
