Actor/vocal recording artist/photographer Leonard Nimoy has done many, many things in show biz, but clearly his defining role has been as the part-Vulcan, part human Mr. Spock on "Star Trek," which ran from 1966 to 1969 and lives on in re-runs.
NImoy's parents immigrated to America from Russia; he was born in Boston. Nimoy served in the Army in the early to mid 1950s, after which he landed his first TV role on "Sea Hunt." Prior to "Star Trek," he appeared in a great many movies and shows. He has also appeared in live theater and has done TV commercial work, yet he has remained profitably tied to his role as the rational, emotion-free Spock.
