It’s been two years since the death of famous comedic actor, Robin Williams. His 65th birthday would have been July 21st. He won four Golden Globes, five Grammys, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, an Oscar, and two Emmys, not to mention over $3 billion in lifetime grosses — not bad for a stand-up comedian who became known because of his roles in the star of Mork and Mindy, a spinoff sitcom from Happy Days about a goofy alien.
