Betty White day, and also her birthday! 

Betty White was born on January 17, 1922 in Oak Park, Illinois. And although she passed in 2021, her legacy and presence still touches audiences all over the world from her career of over seven decades acting in television, and in movies. 

“Ms. White won five Primetime Emmys and one competitive Daytime Emmy — as well as a lifetime achievement Daytime Award and Emmy in 2010 and 2015 respectively and a Los Angeles regional Emmy in 1952 — in a television career that spanned seven decades and that the 2014 edition of “Guinness World Records” certified as the longest ever for a female entertainer.” - The New York Times
