What was in TIME when you were born?

Dare to show your age? The TIME magazine website has a "cover search" feature that allows you to look up what was on newsstands the week you were born. Just go to the Advanced Search page, and scroll down to "Find Your Birthday Cover."

Sadly, I wasn't born during a particularly interesting week. My cover featured Mohamed Reza Pahlevi and a special feature on breast cancer.

Who or what was your TIME cover topic?

Well, I was born while as this guy...

Nguyen van Thieu was popular @ Sept 15,1967.

Don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing, since the fact that I don't know anything much about that person & the magazine itself.

Athough, if you want to find out more info, here is the TIME Archive.

Aloha.

I got someone named Anastas Mikoyan. No idea who this person is other than he is from Russia (according to the cover).

Dang, Helen, You're old.

Just kidding, my mom is born in March 1945,
so that makes her older than you.

Here is my mom's year on TIME magazine: Lord Woolton March 26, 1945

And my mom, doesn't even look old.

Aloha.

The cover out at my date of birth (Feb. 13th, 1962) was of a man named- Rev. Theodore Hesburgh, the Notre Dame president at the TIME. The article's title was "God and man at Notre Dame".

I figured it had something to do with either Richard Nixon, Vietnam or the
Cold War.

O.K. My cover story has to do with eight people fighting for election totals and Ronald Reagon is leading in it. I was born in 1980 I think one of the coolest era's after the 70's with the song "Celebration" I can just see it in my mind as I am humming the song while typing along.
