Famous Birthdays is an American website based in Los Angeles, California which is dedicated to cataloging the birthdays of famous people and compiling other facts about them.[1][2]
Rebranded in 2012 by Evan Britton, who has since described the website as "Wikipedia for Generation Z".[3] It originally focused on traditional celebrities like Tom Hanks and Kobe Bryant, but it has since broadened its scope to include celebrities popular on the Internet who would not conventionally be considered "famous".[1] As of January 2018, it had over 150,000 pages of people and was viewed by an average of 18 million unique users each month.[4]
