EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Armin Shimerman On Shakespeare, Star Trek, and the Late, Great Rene Auberjonois
You know Armin Shimerman as the scheming Ferengi Quark on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and possibly also as the principal of Sunnydale High on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But if you asked him what he considers to be his primary profession, you might be surprised by his answer. “I am primarily a teacher,” he tells me in the interview below. Shimerman is also a writer, and the third book in his Illyria trilogy is set to be released early next year. He and I sat down to discuss the books, Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and the late, great Rene Auberjonois. If you’re considering buying the Illyria trilogy, I highly recommend starting with the first one, Betrayal of Angels. You can order the first two books and preorder the third at the Jumpmaster Press website. Patreon supporters gain access to a special deleted scene, wherein Shimerman discusses the problem with a recent filmed version of Macbeth and gives a short master class on Shakespearean text.
