MICHAEL STARR'S UNIQUE BIOGRAPHY ON STAR TREK ICON WILLIAM SHATNER

William Shatner

In the early months of 1966, a handsome,hardworking thirty-five year old Canadian born actor named William Shatner was cast as Captain Kirk in Star Trek, a troubled, low-budget science-fiction television series set to premier that fall on NBC. Star Trek struggled for viewers and lasted on three seasons, but it found a huge, rabidly dedicated audience when it premier in syndication following its cancellation -- turning Shatner into a pop-culture icon and launching him on a career path he never could have imagined.

Famed New York Post columnist, Michael Seth Starr, has authored an excellent biography presenting a no-holds barred, unvarnished look at Shatner and his unique career. Highly recommended reading. Available at Amazon.com
