William Windom is an Emmy-winning actor who's had an extensive career in movies and television.
One of his finest roles was in 1962's "To Kill a Mockingbird". A few years later, he had his own tv series, "My World and Welcome To It", for which he won his Emmy.
I'd never requested a photo from Mr. Windom during my active years of collecting, mainly because I never obtained an address for him. But in 1998, I had the pleasure of meeting him at the same banquet at which I met Gale Storm (see blog from November 18). He signed this photo for me.
Will Windom, fine an actor as he is, stays with me in the memorable STAR TREK episode "THE DOOMSDAY MACHINE" ass Commodore Decker of the spaceship Constellation: His crew all dead, his ship destroyed, He goes mad and allows the planet-killer machine to kill him, too! Terrific performance!~
