Emmy and Tony winner Bebe Neuwirth is turning 59 today. She studied dance at Juilliard, and made her Broadway debut as a replacement in A Chorus Line, in the role of Sheila. She won her first Tony as Nickie in the 1986 revival of Sweet Charity, for Best Featured Actress in a Musical; her subsequent Broadway performances have included Lola in the 1994 revival of Damn Yankees, and Morticia Addams in the original production of The Addams Family. The Broadway production she is best known for, however, is the 1996 revival of Chicago. She starred as Velma Kelly in the original cast, winning her second Tony. 10 years later, she returned to the production, this time as Roxie Hart, and returned a third time, in early 2014, as Mama Morton.
Neuwirth’s first prominent television role was in a popular 1980s sitcom set in a bar where everybody knew your name.

Neuwirth, whose character of Lilith Sternin on Cheers went from an occasional guest appearance to, eventually, a series regular, won two Emmys in the role; she then added a nomination for a third Emmy for a guest appearance as Lilith on Frasier. She made her feature film debut in Say Anything, and has had supporting roles in films such as Green Card, Malice, The Faculty, and The Big Bounce. She received her fourth Emmy nomination for the TV movie Dash and Lilly, and most recently was a regular on Madam Secretary through the early episodes of season 4.
