Celebrities Born on Easter 1940-1999
Over the past centuries, Easter has been celebrated on various dates of the
calendar depending on use of the Gregorian (after 1582) or Julian calendars
that determine the range of Catholic Easter dates (for Gregorian)
or Orthodox Easter dates (for Julian).
Up through the year 1582, Easter was celebrated using the Julian calendar.
When the Gregorian calendar went into effect in October of that year, the first
Easter using the Gregorian calendar (Catholic) was moved ahead to be closer
to the actual start of the Spring (or Fall in the Southern hemisphere)
season instead of waiting until what is now early April on the Greogiran dates that correspond to the Julian calendar.
For this page, we'll use the Gregorian Easter dates.
Each year, Easter falls on a different date, as it is a floating holiday.
There are people born on an Easter Sunday, or course, in a given year.
A few notable celebrities were born on an Easter Sunday, which makes them
Easter babies, and theoritically celebrate their birthdays twice: one
on the actual date they were born, and the other on an Easter Sunday.
What follows is not an exhaustive list of celebrites born on an Easter Sunday.
This is done by hand and is not a computerized list, so excuse me if
there are some inaccuracies in this short list. Not all Easter dates below
have a known celebrity birthday as I type this on Easter Sunday in 2019.
All are extracted from my sister website Super Birth Chronology
with celebrity birthdays in chronological order.
One day I'll write a computer program that will find the celebrities born on dates earlier than 1940,
but this will have to do for now.
