Phylicia Rashad has done it all over the years. That includes being a regular on a soap (One Life to Live), playing an iconic TV mom (in Clair Huxtable), putting out a disco album, being the first Black woman to win the Tony Award for Best Actress for A Raisin in the Sun, getting married a few times (three) and embracing being a mother. And while she’s had quite the storied career and life, it was definitely a surprise to find out that on this day, she’s turning 70. She sure doesn’t look it!

Rashad is one of our favorite classic beauties, and to celebrate her 70th born day, we decided to take a look back at some throwback images of the star over the years. Here’s to more life and aging gracefully!
