When Leonard Nimoy’s parents first arrived in Boston from Russia, their passports were stamped “alien.”  Although his parents continued to feel that way, “Lenny” saw the world as a place where he could bring everyone together as one family. With support from his parents and grandparents, he went off to Hollywood to make his way. As Spock on Star Trek, he created his own special Vulcan greeting, a Hebraic blessing and split fingered gesture he learned at the age of 8: “Live long and prosper.” Fascinating.
