Robin Williams (Film & Animation - Voice): Inducted 2009

Like Mork, the character he first played on an episode of ABC's Happy Days, this utterly original comic and iconic movie star appeared on our TV sets seemingly out of nowhere, almost as if from outer space. But by 1978, when ABC's Mork & Mindy arrived on screens-some nights drawing an over 50 share of the television audience-Robin Williams soared to superstardom faster than you could say "Na-Nu-Na-Nu," "Shaz-bot" or any of the other catchphrases the improvisational comic genius made part of the pop culture zeitgeist of the late 1970s. Within two weeks of the show's premiere, Robin was hailed as a new star. Little could we have known that he was just getting started.

He was born in July 1952, the son of an automobile executive and his wife, a former model. He was raised in Chicago and Detroit, moving with his family to the San Francisco area during his last year in high school. A gifted student, Robin majored in political science at both Marin and Claremont Colleges. While at Marin, he won a scholarship to Juilliard in New York City, where he studied with the legendary John Houseman, along with Christopher Reeve, with whom he remained lifetime friends.

Critics waxed euphoric in their attempts to describe Robin's stand-up comedy work, a craft he turned to with vigor and perfected in the years following the conclusion of Mork & Mindy. "An outstanding lunar Wildman, out of Jonathan Winters by way of Lenny Bruce with a touch of Richard Burton thrown in," enthused one critic. "An engaging, bright and inventive actor," said another. After taking in the sight of the deliriously manic comic's nightclub act on an HBO special, The Hollywood Reporter characterized the incendiary performance as "unadulterated brilliance."

In 1987, Robin trained his talents on live-action and animated films and almost immediately became one of our country's most important actors. Beginning with Good Morning, Vietnam in 1987, for which his performance as United States Air Force Airman Adrian Cronauer was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, Robin starred in an impressive string of Disney films. They included a moving and haunting portrayal of teacher John Keating in Dead Poets Society, a hilarious voice role as the Genie in Aladdin-a spellbinding marvel of vocal calisthenics that left laughing audiences gasping for air-and high-caliber performances in Flubber and Bicentennial Man.

Along the way, Robin starred in seminal films, including Moscow on the Hudson, for which he earned his first Golden Globe nomination, Miramax's Good Will Hunting, for which his nuanced role as grieving psychologist Sean Maguire earned him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and Mrs. Doubtfire, which earned him his third Golden Globe-this time for Best Actor-Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.

Robin appeared in Back to Neverland for the Disney-MGM Studios Animation Tour, and provided the voice of the Timekeeper for the attraction of that name at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

Robin, who recently underwent successful heart surgery, plans to return to the live stage at some point this year and will appear with co-star John Travolta in Walt Disney Pictures' Old Dogs in November. "This little break has given me more energy than ever," he said in a recent interview. "Plus, it's wonderful to have a cow valve. If you don't mind the grazing, it's quite invigorating."
