Leonard Nimoy (1931 - 2015) was an American actor, famed for playing Spock in the Star Trek franchise for almost 50 years. This includes originating Spock in the original Star Trek series in 1966, then Star Trek: The Animated Series, the first six Star Trek films, and Star Trek: The Next Generation. Nimoy also directed films, including Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986), appearing in several films, and television shows. Outside of acting, Nimoy was a film director, photographer, author, singer, and songwriter.
Nimoy began his acting career in his early twenties, teaching acting classes in Hollywood and making minor film and television appearances through the 1950s. From 1953 to 1955, he served in the United States Army as a Staff Sergeant in Special Services, an entertainment branch of the American military. He originated and developed Spock beginning with the February 1964 Star Trek television pilots "The Cage" and "Where No Man Has Gone Before", through the series' end in early 1969, followed by eight feature films and guest appearances in spin-offs. From 1967 to 1970, Nimoy had a music career with Dot Records, with his first and second albums mostly as Spock. After the original Star Trek series, Nimoy starred in Mission: Impossible for two seasons, hosted the documentary series In Search of..., and made several well-received stage appearances.
Nimoy's portrayal of Spock made a significant cultural impact and earned him three Emmy Award nominations. His public profile as Spock was so strong that both his autobiographies, I Am Not Spock (1975) and I Am Spock (1995), were written from the viewpoint of coexistence with the character. In 2010, Nimoy announced that he was retiring from playing Spock, citing both his advanced age and the desire to give Zachary Quinto full media attention as the character. His final role as Spock was in 2013.
In 2015, Nimoy died after a long case of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). His death became international news and was met with expressions of shock and grief by fans, Star Trek co-stars, scientists, celebrities, and the media. An asteroid was named 4864 Nimoy in his honor. For the Love of Spock (2016) was produced by his son Adam about his life and career and Remembering Leonard Nimoy (2017) was produced by his daughter Julie about his illness.

Thanks for watching

[@Matlockization]

I think it's utterly refreshing & genius that while the story of a movie develops, that these actors are allowed to contemplate whatever philosophical questions (not necessarily connected to the storyline) they may share with the audience.

[@acedrumminman]

A morally structured society...guess we'll have to wait a few hundred years.

[@GarysnewYT]

Or a few thousand years.

[@thomasschaefer9312]

Leonard Nimoy was great in Star Trek Into Darkness.

That was wonderful to watch. Thank you Ad Vids! 🖖👍

[@advids5572]

Thanks for watching.

[@Robert08010]

I loved the fact that in Star Trek:TOS, the most spiritual guy is also the scientist. I wonder if that was intentional on the part of Roddenberry, or it is came about by accident - because they wanted him to seem more alien.

[@user-gn9vu7wn7t]

A legend!

[@CDOODY1999]

facinating, the inseperability, the brotherhood that was on screen between kirk and spock that played out agan in discovery, was suggested by isac asimov, out of a rivalry between the actors

[@Robert08010]

Fascinating!

[@sfdudeca]

Me. Spock IS ‘Star Trek’!

[@C-man553]

He had been Spock to me since 1966. But now he is Belly. Fringe.

[@mailee6766]

Very handsome.
