A comic genius who has firmly established himself as one of Hollywood's true stars, Robin Williams was born in Chicago in 1952. A Juillard acting student, Williams found early fame for his wild and exciting comic routines and for his part as the alien in the TV series Mork And Mindy. His big screen break came in Robert Altman's Popeye in 1980, leading to roles in films like The World According To Garp, and Moscow On The Hudson. Williams is at home with almost any kind of material, from comic to deadly serious, as can be seen in his roles in Good Morning Vietnam, Dead Poets Society, Aladdin and Good Will Hunting.
