Walter Koenig
Biography
Date of Birth 14 September 1936, Chicago, Illinois, USA Birth Name Walter Marvin Koenig Height 5' 6" (1.68 m) Walter Marvin Koenig is an American actor, writer, teacher and director, best known for his roles as Chekov in Star Trek, and as Bester on the series Babylon 5. Koenig (pronounced /ke?n?g/) is of Russian Jewish descent; his family was living in Lithuania when they emigrated and changed their surname from Koenigsberg to Koenig. He attended Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa with a pre-med major. He transferred to UCLA and received a BA in psychology. He has been married since 1965 to Judy Levitt and has a son, Josh Andrew Koenig, and a daughter, Danielle Koenig, who is one of the writers for Invader Zim. Koenig had heart bypass surgery in 1993. His role in Babylon 5 came out of that incident since his hospitalization forced him to bow out of a guest spot. The series producer promised to make it up to him for the lost opportunity and got the role later on.
