Plot Summary of I Am Spock
"Leonard Nimoy's follow-up to his best-selling "I Am Not Spock" has the actor/producer realizing that the character with whom he is most associated is truly a reflection of Nimoy the man and the actor. Discussing his early years as a struggling actor and his "discovery" as a member of the cast of the 60's sci-fi classic "Star Trek", Nimoy manages to paint an intriguing canvas of triumph and failure. The actor not only reflects on his "Trek" years but the subsequent TV, movie, and stage success. Nimoy comes to grips with the price of celebrity and its rewards and disappointments.
"

Reginald D. Garrard, Resident Scholar
