Robin Williams, who is about to star in Broadway's Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo, appears on Late Show with David Letterman.
From his start as a stand-up comedian in the 1970s, Williams has created an incredibly diverse career as a comedic and dramatic actor. He won the Academy Award in 1998 for Good Will Hunting, having previously been nominated for three other films: Good Morning, Vietnam, Dead Poets Society and The Fisher King. Other notable credits include Mork & Mindy, The World According to Garp, Moscow on the Hudson, Awakenings, Hook, Aladdin, Toys, Mrs. Doubtfire, Jumanji, The Birdcage, Hamlet, Deconstructing Harry, Patch Adams, Artificial Intelligence: AI, One Hour Photo, Insomnia and Night at the Museum. Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo would mark the first dramatic stage appearance for Williams since he played Estragon in a starry production of Waiting for Godot at Lincoln Center in 1998. He previously appeared on Broadway in a stand-up engagement at the Broadway Theatre in 2002.
