Description
Robin Williams had so many faces & voices making me laugh for so many years. I just had to do something dramatic to tell a story describing his life & death. To me, he just covered thy faces.
Robin Williams - "Cover Thy Faces" a tribute to the many faces & voices shared worldwide, known for comedy & dramatic acting, nominated for the Academy Awards Best Actor three times, won an Academy Award "Best Supporting Actor" two Emmy Awards, four Golden Globe Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, five Grammy Awards, now gone forever. :-(
Robin McLaurin Williams was America's leading actor and comedian royalty, forever covered by his untimely death August 11, 2014
Starting off as a stand-up comedian in San Francisco and Los Angeles in the mid 1970's, he is credited with leading its "comedy renaissance".
After rising to fame as Mork in the TV series Mork & Mindy (1978-82), Williams went on to establish a career in both stand-up comedy and feature film acting, remembering then him as a young teenager.
His film career included such films as Popeye (1980), The World According to Garp (1982), Good Morning, Vietnam (1987), Dead Poets Society (1989), Awakenings (1990), The Fisher King (1991), and Good Will Hunting (1997), as well as financial successes such as Hook (1991), Aladdin (1992), Mrs. Doubtfire (1993), Jumanji (1995), The Birdcage (1996), Night at the Museum (2006), and Happy Feet (2006). He also appeared in the video "Don't Worry, Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin. Endless talents.
TV producer George Schlatter, who first saw Williams doing stand-up comedy in 1977, gave him his first TV spot in Laugh-In, certain that Williams would become an important "force" in the entertainment industry.
Terry Gilliam, who directed Williams in two films, was impressed by the breadth of his acting range, to "go from manic to mad to tender and vulnerable," stating that Williams was a very unique actor.
