BACKGROUND INFORMATION


Actor-director Leonard Nimoy, actor-teacher John de Lancie and writer-producer Nat Segaloff formed Alien Voices® in 1996 to create multi-media works of science fiction and fantasy. The initial enterprise that Nimoy, de Lancie and Segaloff chose was state-of-the-art audio plays.

The first three Alien Voices titles were published in the spring of 1997 by industry leader Simon & Schuster Audio: H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine," Jules Verne's "Journey to the Center of the Earth," and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Lost World." All are fully dramatized adaptations with stereophonic scoundscape by Jeff Howell and original music by Peter Erskine.

The casts have included actors and actresses who have appeared in various "Star Trek"® television and feature film series, among them (alphabetically): Susan Bay, Roxann Dawson, Richard Doyle, Robert Ellenstein, Marnie Mosiman, Ethan Phillips, Andrew Robinson, Dwight Schultz and Armin Shimerman. Incidentally, this marks the first time that actors and actresses drawn from all Star Trek® "generations" have performed together in single productions. Nimoy and de Lancie headline each drama.

Future Alien Voices projects will include television, Internet and CD-ROM.

"After years of being associated with other people's projects we wanted to enter the next century at the helm of our own," said Leonard Nimoy, best known for his portrayal of "Mr. Spock" in the original "Star Trek"® productions. "Alien Voices gives us a chance to work with other artists who also want to branch out, yet still provide audiences with the quality they've come to expect from us."

Adds de Lancie, whose recurring role as "Q" in "Star Trek: The Next Generation"® and "Star Trek: Voyager"® made him the series' most popular guest star, "I was raised on the classics -- Jules Verne, H.G. Wells and others. Now we can bring these to even wider audiences by means of new technologies and old friends."

Leonard Nimoy was educated at Boston College and Antioch College and studied acting under Jeff Corey. Among his starring stage credits are "Equus," "Deathwatch," "Vincent," "Fiddler on the Roof," "Sherlock Holmes" and "The Man in the Glass Booth." His numerous film and television credits include "Outer Limits," "Invasion of the Body Snatchers," "Profiles in Courage," " Mission: Impossible," "A Woman Called Golda," "Never Forget" and host of the series "In Search of..." and "Ancient Mysteries." As director he has made the films "The Good Mother," "Three Men and a Baby" and "Funny About Love." He also directed the hit films "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock"® and "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home"® in which he played the role of Mr. Spock.
