Sorry to hear this. I was never a big fan of STAR TREK, but he's such a cultural icon regardless. And he did play in other things as well up untill quite recently, including a favourite television series of mine, FRINGE.

A favorite of mine too. So glad he participated in it. He will be missed.
Sorry to hear this on my drive home this evening. I've been aware of him since I was probably seven or eight years old and he was one of many unique parts of my personal cultural landscape. I was always happy to see him on screen, whether in the original series, as part of the films (even though I didn't really care for most of them), in what little I saw of MI, and in Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
Also his hilarious vicarious appearance in Spitting Image - "There's more to me than Spock...I am an actor...ahem: To be or not to be, that is.....illogical, captain!"
His presence in my life was minor and unimportant in the scheme of things, but his absence will undoubtedly leave a gap. RIP.
R.I.P. Leonard Nimoy. You did live long and prospered. You're now up there with Gene Roddenberry, James Doohan, DeForrest Kelley and "Star Trek IV" composers Leonard Rosenman (who you selected to score the film) and Jerry Goldsmith (as well as series composers Alexander Courage, Jerry Fielding, Sol Kaplan, George Duning, Samuel Matlovsky and Joseph Mullendore), and fellow "Mission: Impossible" stars Peter Graves and Greg Morris. I also remember you from "In Search Of" and you directed an episode of "Night Gallery" with Lesley Ann Warren whose title escapes me. You will not be forgotten.
