Robin Williams, widely regarded as one of the best comedians of all time, he was known for his improvisational skills and the wide variety of characters he created on the spur of the moment. After rising to fame portraying Mork in the ABC sitcom, Mindy & Mork, he went on to star in comedic movies and critically acclaimed films alike, including Good Morning, Vietnam (1987), Dead Poets Society (1989), Patch Adams (1998), and One Hour Photo (2002). A string of family friendly box office successes like Hook (1991), Aladdin (1992), Mrs. Doubtfire (1993), Jumanji (1995), and the Night at the Museum trilogy (2006–2014) further cemented the breath-taking scope of his career and earned him new generations of fans. He won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor with his role in Good Will Hunting (1997) and was nominated for four Oscars in total. His many other accolades included two Primetime Emmy Awards, six Golden Globe Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, and five Grammy Awards.
