Over the summer, I have been watching the TOS episodes with my kids. Now that we are almost done with our marathon (tonight, alas, was "Wink of an Eye"), my kids have announced that they want to draw pictures of Spock and send them to Leonard Nimoy. Anyone know of a current mailing address - perhaps for the agency that represents him? We tried looking on the Internet, with no success. Many thanks.
He does have a Twitter account, although that obviously doesn't allow for a lot of language. It might be a good way to find out from him (or his people), though.
During the original run of Star Trek or shortly afterward, some Hollywood fan magazine ran a profile on Nimoy. They meant to include his drop-box address for fan letters, but they accidentally published his actual home address instead. The Nimoys got an avalanche of mail and even some stalker-ish nerd lurking around the hedges. They had to move. I'm looking for the source of this but I haven't found it yet. I saw it online within the past year or so.
You might be able to connect to him through whoever published his most recent book. If you're a member of IMDB Pro, you might be able to see the name of his agent. And another way to connect is if a magazine has run a lengthy article on him, you could try going through them. Decades ago, Time Magazine did a cover story on Woody Allen. I wrote him a fan letter in care of Time, and a few weeks later got a note back from him answering one of my questions.
Your kids sound adorable. Maybe if you can't contact Leonard Nimoy they could post them on DeviantArt or Photobucket or something like that. If he ever comes to conventions again maybe he could sign them if they sign hand-drawn pictures.
