I will tell this story in full eventually. In fact, I just came across my original hand written (and very excited) journal entry of this event, which I will post here sometime soon, probably after June (the end of the school year is very busy). Glad I wrote it then, because it reminded me of that wonderful event. I will tell you this much; It was on February 18, 1978, in Elmira NY at the Clemmons Center, and the show was called “An Evening with Leonard Nimoy”. He gave a wonderful lecture and although I had forgotten my camera (dammit!) a kind fan sent me three pictures from the event a week later. Bless her. And yes, the pictures will be part of the post. Stay Tuned.
James I wish I knew! I don’t know if any Mike Douglas episodes are archived. I saw a different one with Nimoy and Mason Reese on YouTube See it herehttps://trekkerscrapbook.com/2013/12/18/my-weekly-spock-the-patchwork-suit-nimoy-on-mike-douglas/
Faux-Stache! Funny appearance on The Mike Douglas Show in 1973! Wish I could find a video of this!
Sadly, I imagine his ‘romantic French accent’ was none too authentic either, knowing his hit or miss abilities with accents 🙁
Actually, when I met Mr. Nimoy in 1978, he pronounced my name in its French pronucniation, (Teh-Rez) and it was music to my ears!
I’m really pleased to hear that! That’s lovely to hear. And, meeting him in 1978? SERIOUS ENVY!!! Where and how?

Look forward to that!
Anyone know where I can obtain a copy of this episode? I vaguely remember seeing it when it was first aired.
