Star Trek Leinard Nimoy Mr.Spock

Leonard Simon Nimoy was born on March 26, 1931, in Boston, Massachusetts. He was an American actor, film director, photographer, author, singer and songwriter. He was known for his role as Mr. Spock of the Star Trek franchise.

His parents, Dora and Max Nimoy already had a five year old son called Melvin. Dora and Max were Jewish immigrants from the Ukraine. Dora was a housewife and Max owned his own Barbers shop. He was educated at Boston English High School. Leonard first appeared on stage in a production of Hansel and Gretel at the age of 8, and continued to appear in amateur shows until he was 18, when he left home to travel to California to begin his career in earnest. After only one year in Hollywood, and only just 20, he landed the lead role in a movie Kid Monk Baroni. He met Sandy Zober and they married in 1954 while Leonard was serving in the US army. They have two children, Julie (1955) and Adam (1956).

Leonard Nimoy will be forever known as Mr. Spock in the original cast of Star Trek. A pointy-eared science officer from the planet Vulcan, Spock served on the spaceship Enterprise and was the intellectual counterpoint to the fiery Captain Kirk. Leonard Nimoy became so closely tied to the character that he wrote a 1975 autobiography titled I Am Not Spock, but in later years he reached a peaceful coexistence with his alter ego. He reprised the character in seven different feature films based on the TV show, including playing an aged Spock in 2013’s Star Trek Into Darkness.

Leonard Nimoy died on February 27, 2024 in Bel Air, Los Angeles, California, of end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. He was 83.
