Star Trek Helmer Nicholas Meyer Tells All, Makes Up Some
KPCC's John Rabe interviews Nicholas Meyer, the author and screenwriter, about his new book, "The View from the Bridge." In the first two segments here, Meyer talks about childhood, the attraction of Sherlock Holmes, casting and meeting Olivier, and making "Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan," which revived the Star Trek franchise. (The last piece of audio is the whole, unedited interview.)
