Philly birthday girl: Heather Day Slawek

February 13, 2012

HAPPY BIRTHDAY this Saturday to . . . Princess! Not the most international celeb on this list, but to 30- and 40-something locals, Heather Day Slawek of "Dancin' on Air" and "Dance Party U.S.A." is a super-duper star. In the '80s, she dominated the dance floor, obsessed over Prince and wore a single lavender teardrop beneath one eye. Today, she's a suburban mom and owner of Pole Awakenings Fitness centers. Her next year will be one of discovery, friendships and success - much like her first 40.

Today, retired newsguy Marc Howard anchors 75, and sports-radio big mouth Anthony Gargano wings 44. Valentine babies include former weather dude Dave Roberts, a sunny 74; magician Teller, a quiet 64; and both "Fresh Air's" Terry Gross, 61, and her colleague, "Radio Times' " Marty Moss-Coane, 63. Wednesday, Flyer Jaromir Jagr hits 40.
