We’re deeply saddened to learn of Leonard Nimoy’s passing this morning. Beyond his iconic, beloved, and influential role as Star Trek’s Mr. Spock, Nimoy was a conscious artist, poet, and writer.
He was also keenly invested in his Jewish identity, which his brought into all of his works.
Live long and prosper, Leonard.
