'''Robin Williams''' is a stand-up comedian and actor who first came to national attention in [[Mork and Mindy]]. His breakthrough role was as a hip, wisecracking, anti-establishment DJ in "[[Good Morning, Vietnam]]. He has frequently portrayed doctors or therapists; in [[Good Will Hunting]] he played a professor of psychology treating an underachieving genius ([[Matt Damon]]). In a couple of movies he plays a character who becomes popular due to a fraud. In the first, he's elected president when a computer program gives the wrong election result. In "[[World's Greatest Dad]]" his character provides the fraud when he palms off his own writing as that of his dead son. Many of his movies deal with death. He played an Alaskan murderer; a pediatrician who dies in a car accident (and then his wife commits suicide) in "[[What Dreams May Come]]". {{DEFAULTSORT:Williams, Robin}} [[category:Actors]]
