Rest in Peace, Mr. Nimoy.
My brother-in-law went to high school with him in Boston. He said Leonard was determined to become an actor from a very early age.
"Nimoy began acting at the age of eight in children's and neighborhood theater. His parents wanted him to attend college and pursue a stable career, or even learn to play the accordion—with which, his father advised, Nimoy could always make a living—but his grandfather encouraged him to become an actor. His first major role was at 17, as Ralphie in an amateur production of Clifford Odets' Awake and Sing!. Nimoy took drama classes at Boston College in 1953 but failed to complete his studie."
My brother-in-law passed about a year and a half ago.
Regards,
John |
