Miriam Makeba's Google Logo

Today is the 81st birthday of Miriam Makeba.

She was born today in 1932 and died at the age of 76 on November 9, 2008. Her death was unexpected, coming right after a concert in Italy organized to support writer Roberto Saviano in his stand against the Camorra, a mafia-like organisation local to the region of Campania.
