They were all born on April 29; in 1901, 1944, and 1899, respectively. (See for a celebration of the first). It's also Henri Poincar�'s birthday (1854).

Princess Benedikte, Duke Ellington and that evil piece of shit, Hirohito, were all born on this day. The world can be thankful for the first two, and regret that the third didn't die in infancy.
