George Takei

from Now I've Heard Everything Hosted by Bill Thompson

Happy birthday to George Takei, who today is 83. Many of us remember him best s Helmsman Sulu on the original "Star Trek" TV series, or perhaps as an author or activist or wildly popular and widely quoted and rweeted internet commentator. George Takei was just four years old when the Japanese empire attacked Pearl Harbor and plunged America into World War Two. The U.S. government ordered Japanese-Americans into internment camps, and the Takei family of California was among those taken into custody.
