On this day in 1974, George Lucas was polishing up the first draft of Star Wars (excuse me, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope), the Ramones were having their first practices, and Joaquin Phoenix (nickname: Kitten) was conceived in Puerto Rico. Happy conception day, Kitten!
Also conceived today: Jonas Salk (1914,) Bill Gates (1955), Julia Roberts (1967), Brooke Burns (1977)
