- Grew up on New York's Long Island. B.A. from Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison, majoring in speech, 1963-1967.
- On leaving the Star Trek franchise: "It's not an easy task. On the other hand, I have nothing to be ashamed about. We created 624 hours of television and four feature films and I think we did a hell of a job. I'm amazed that we managed to get 18 years of the kind of work that everyone involved managed to contribute to, and it's certainly more than anyone could have asked for."
