Hugh Laurie is turning 58 today. While attending Cambridge, he became involved in the Footlights theatrical club; fellow club member Emma Thompson introduced him to Stephen Fry, and a decades-long comedy partnership was formed. In the next several years, the Fry and Laurie duo worked together on a variety of projects in British television, including Blackadder, Jeeves & Wooster (with Laurie as Bertie Wooster and Fry as Jeeves), and their own sketch comedy series, A Bit of Fry & Laurie. Laurie also made a number of feature film appearances, such as the live action 101 Dalmatians and the Stuart Little films.
In 2004 Laurie was cast in the lead role of an American medical drama, playing a physician who combines intellectual brilliance, a genius for diagnosis, and a bedside manner that is probably best described as misanthropic.

During House’s run, Laurie was nominated for six Emmys and six Golden Globes for playing Dr. Gregory House, winning two of the latter as Best Actor in a Television Drama. He is a talented musician who has released a pair of successful blues albums. In the past few years he has appeared in the feature film Tomorrowland and in a recurring role on Veep. He currently stars as another medical professional on Hulu’s Chance and will appear in the upcoming film Holmes and Watson.
