Art Fleming was born exactly 61 years before me, and I think we can include Jack Paar here as well.

May 1st is otherwise a pretty dull day for celebrity birthdays.  Tim McGraw and the guy who founded Orange County Choppers is pretty much it.  After that, you're down to Wes Welker and some hip hop singer who spells her name with a dollar sign.

What's wrong with Wes?  He's a damn good receiver.

Have you never heard of Glenn Ford?  IMDb also lists Oscar-nominated Dan O'Herlihy as being a May 1 birthday; he and Art Fleming both appeared in the Gregory Peck movie MacArthur.

I suppose I could have mentioned Mack Daddy from Kris Kross instead.  :-p

The only game show celebrity with whom I share a birthday is Peggy Cass.  

I also share a b-day with Mr. T, Raymond Burr, Fats Waller, Dennis Day, and Biggie Smalls.

My B'day (Feb. 1), is shared with the late Bill Leyden, whose shows include:

It Could Be You
Your First Impression
Call My Bluff
You're Putting Me On (before Larry Blyden)

I also remember seeing him occassionally filling in for Monty Hall, on the original NBC Daytime run of LMAD.

The closest I can come is Steven Ford, who was a guest on a few game shows in the 1980s.

I also share one with Grace Jones, Joey Ramone, and André the Giant, for what it's worth.

The closest I come to here is the late Roger Christian (d. 1991); who was a veteran deejay at KRLA, (where he worked alongside Bob Eubanks and Wink Martindale) KFWB, (where he was reunited with the Winkster) and KHJ (during the Boss Radio launch in 1965).

A "stretch?"

Cordially,
Tammy

My birthday is really special!  I share my birthday (March 16th) with 'Mr. 2 & 2' himself, Chuck Woolery.  In addition, I almost forgot former 'Dog Eat Dog' host (and 'Hole in the Wall' co-host), Brooke Burns.

Other living celebrities celebrating the same birthday:  

Jerry Lewis (Comic, actor, MDA Chairman)
Lauren Graham (Lorelei on 'Gilmore Girls', Speed-dial girlfriend on 'Seinfeld')
Erik Estrada (Ponch on 'CHiPs', pitchman of 'Estrada' sunglasses in Burger King commercial)
Kate Nelligan (Nolte's sister in 'The Prince of Tides').
