At the age of 76, Leonard Nimoy has a voice that sounds like old Bourbon should taste. I heard his voice on NPR this weekend, talking to Weekend Edition host Scott Simon about his new book of photographs, The Full Body Project. I was delighted to learn that Mr. Nimoy has not limited his artistic pursuits to acting the role of Spock, and among his non-Vulcan pursuits is fine art photography. In this series of nude photographs of the frankly obese-and-proud-of-it women of the Big Burlesque and Big Bottom Revue, he fights the good fight against the 'tyranny of slenderness.' Good on him.
