Biography

The multipurpose standup comic/actor first rose to fame as the delightful Mork from Ork on the TV show Mork and Mindy, and he rode that show to fame on cable TV specials and several films, including The World According to Garp, Good Morning, Vietnam, Hook and Mrs. Doubtfire. Using a wide assemblage of voices and movements, Williams is one of the most popular and visible comics around, and his releases highlight him.
