From his first appearance as Mork from Ork on the 1970s sitcomHappy Days, Robin Williams was heralded as a singular talent. In the pre-cable television era, he was one of the few performers to successfully transition from TV to film. An Oscar-winning actor and preternaturally quick-witted comedian, Williams became a cultural icon, leaving behind a large and varied body of work when he unexpectedly took his own life in 2014. This collection of new essays brings together a range of perspectives on Williams and his oeuvre, including beloved hits likeMrs. Doubtfire,Good Morning, Vietnam,Good Will Hunting,The Fisher King,Dead Poets SocietyandAladdin. Contributors explore his earlier work (Mork and Mindy,The World According to Garp) and his political and satirical films (Moscow on the Hudson,Toys). Williams's darker, less well-known fare, such asBeing Human,One Hour Photo,Final CutandBoulevard, is also covered. Williams's artistry has become woven into the fabric of our global media culture.
