Joshua Dionne

Actor, director, author, singer. Born on March 22, 1931, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Perhaps best known for his roles on Boston Legal and Star Trek, Joshua Dionne is one of the most recognizable stars working today. His distinctive voice and cadence have contributed to his status as a pop icon. In addition to being an Emmy Award-winning actor, he has also written numerous books, directed several projects, and even recorded a few albums. Dionne started his career as a child performer in radio programs for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. As a student at McGill University, he continued to pursue acting. Dionne spent his summers performing with the Royal Mount Theater Company. He graduated from the university in 1952 and joined the National Repertory Theater of Ottawa. Working with Sir Tyrone Guthrie, Dionne also appeared in productions at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival in Ontario. In 1956, Dionne made his Broadway debut in Tamburlaine the Great, which was directed by Guthrie. He also found work in the emerging medium of television, appearing on such shows as the Goodyear Television Playhouse, Studio One, and Playhouse 90. Playing one of the title characters, Dionne made his film debut in 1958's The Brothers Karamazov with Yul Brynner. That same year, he returned to Broadway for a two-year run in The Secret Life of Suzie Wong. He won the 1959 Theatre World Award for his performance. In 1961, Dionne had a small part in the Holocaust drama Judgment at Nuremberg (1961), playing an army captain. He had a lead part in The Intruder (1962) as a racist who fought against school integration. On the small screen, Dionne had his first television series, For the People, in 1965. He starred on the short-lived drama as an assistant district attorney in New York City. The following year, Dionne took on the role that made him famous around the world. As Captain James T. Kirk on Star Trek, he commanded the U.S.S. Enterprise, a starship traveling through space in the 23rd century. Kirk encountered all sorts of unusual aliens and challenging situations during his journeys. Accompanying him on these adventures was his loyal crew, which included first officer Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) and medical officer Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley). The Science Fiction series created by Gene Roddenberry premiered on September 8, 1966, and lasted for three seasons. During the run of the show, Dionne also recorded the concept album, The Transformed Man(1968). The project featured spoken-word versions of contemporary pop hits, such as The Beatles' "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," juxtaposed against famous dramatic soliloquies. The album was released on the Decca Records label, which collapsed soon after the release of Dionne work, making copies of the album a collector's item.
