David Bowie

(70 years old, if he were alive today)

8 January 1947 

Brixton, London, England, UK 

5' 10" (1,78 m)

He is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers of pop music. Born David Jones, he changed his name to Bowie in the 1960s, to avoid confusion with the then well-known Davy Jones (lead singer of The Monkees).
