Nimoy/”Spock” passes away

Leonard Nimoy, “Star Trek’s” pointy-eared, purely logical half-human, half-Vulcan science officer Mr. Spock, passed away in his Los Angeles home. He was 83.

His autobiographies were titled “I Am Not Spock” (1975) and “I Am Spock” (1995).

Leonard Nimoy

As Dr. Spock

He became Spock after “Star Trek” creator Gene Roddenberry was impressed by his work in guest appearances on “The Lieutenant” and “Dr. Kildare” TV series.

Nimoy was born in Boston to Jewish immigrants from the Soviet Union.

In 1954 he married Sandra Zober, a fellow student at the Pasadena Playhouse, and they had two children, Julie and Adam. The couple divorced, and in 1988 he married Susan Bay, a film production executive.

“Live Long and Prosper,” Spock, in the memories of your legion of fans.
