Lets see if ya'll can figure this one out

I kinda hinted at my birthday a couple post ago but didn't say when. Here are a couple clues. Lets see who can figure this one out.
I share my birthday with:
We remember the brilliant and evocative music this person gave the world; music that stretches back over nearly two decades and still remains timeless and universal. This person has been called "the first Third World superstar," "Rasta Prophet," "visionary," and" "revolutionary artist." These accolades were not mere hyperbole. This person was one of the most charismatic and challenging performers of our time.

and

As president of the Screen Actors Guild, this person became embroiled in disputes over the issue of Communism in the film industry; his political views shifted from liberal to conservative. He toured the country as a television host, becoming a spokesman for conservatism. In 1966 he was elected Governor of California by a margin of a million votes; he was re-elected in 1970.

This person won the Republican Presidential nomination in 1980 and chose as his running mate former Texas Congressman and United Nations Ambassador George Bush. Voters troubled by inflation and by the year-long confinement of Americans in Iran swept the Republican ticket into office. This person won 489 electoral votes to 49 for President Jimmy Carter.

Philadelphia, Miss., makes headlines in early August with the discovery of the bodies of three civil-rights workers killed by white supremacists. James E. Chaney, 21; Michael H. Schwerner, 24; and Andrew Goodman, 20, have been missing since June 21. President Johnson has ordered J. Edgar Hoover to investigate their disappearance, 153 FBI agents have poured into the area and infiltrated the White Knights supremacist hate group, some 400 sailors have dredged a swamp, but an informant leads federal agents to an earthen dam on a remote farm, and it turns out that the local sheriff and other law-enforcement officials have been involved in the young men's murder. The search for the three missing civil rights workers turns up the decomposed bodies of two other missing civil rights workers in a Louisiana swamp. Charles Eddie Moore, 20, and Henry Hezekiah, 19, disappeared from Natchez, Miss., May 2, and although police arrest James Ford Seale and Charles Marcus Edwards no indictments are handed up.
