Happy birthday, Alyssa Milano

Actress and activist Alyssa Milano turns 50 years old today. Here are a few pictures in celebration.

Milano began her life and career in the public eye as a child actress, successfully navigated the transition into having a successful career as a grown-up actress, too. Throughout the past four decades, she's remained busy with starring or recurring roles on television series, as well as the occasional appearance on the Big Screen.

Although she in recent years has been best known for her strident public activism in defense of women and their rights (a position from which she retreated with amazing speed once Joe Biden became the Democratic Party's nominee in 2020), she still acts as a sideline.
