Dead for more than three decades, singer Elvis Presley would have been 75 on Jan. 8, and a host of commemorations are planned. These include ceremonies and exhibits at his birthplace in Tupelo, his resting place in Graceland and even at the Smithsonian in Washington.

But who else is 75 this year?

For starters, "Annie Hall" director Woody Allen marks the milestone on Dec. 1 and "The Exorcist" director William Friedkin turns 75 on Aug. 29.

Actors who turn 75 in 2010 include: Donald Sutherland (July 17); Julie Andrews (Oct. 1); Diahann Carroll (July 17); Richard Chamberlain (March 31); Robert Conrad (March 1); Jim Dale (Aug. 15); Judd Hirsch (March 15); Lyle Waggoner (April 13), and Lee Merriwether (May 27), who also was Miss America in 1955.
