Improved to Good Article status by Miyagawa (talk). Self-nominated at 11:07, 19 March 2016 (UTC).
New enough and long enough. QPQ valid. Hook is interesting and sourced, and it's a shame you couldn't use the plane crashes as a subject for the hook. A minor grammar quibble about the hook: I'm not sure whether you intended to say "left the production of Star Trek", because I think that version makes more sense. Picture license is valid.

- The plane crashes are the most incredibly hooky things about the article but were used on the Early life article. Also I'm sure that once the Pan Am crash article gets worked up then we'll see it again. BTW, I've fixed the first hook to "of" instead of "on". Miyagawa (talk) 19:58, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
