Born on 21 July 1951, he studied at the performing arts school, Julliard. He hit the small screen in 1974 with the TV programme, Happy Days. His character Mork, an alien, was so popular that he won his own spin-off show, Mork & Mindy, which ran from 1977 to 1982. The show made the most of his comic talent as he improvised a large part of the dialogue. He did stand up in the late 1970s and early 1980s and, in 2002, returned with Robin Williams: Live On Broadway, the highest-grossing comedy show... moreBorn on 21 July 1951, he studied at the performing arts school, Julliard.
