Bill Nye the Science Guy

Bill Nye, scientist/inventor/comedian/author, is a man with a mission. he's out to turn kids of all ages on to the "way cool" wonders of science! With his Emmy Award-winning weekly television series, Bill Nye the Science Guy, he's letting kids know that science is not only cool, it's powerful. After all, "Science rules!" Bill's fascination with how things work led him to Cornell University and a degree in mechanical engineering. After graduation, he headed for Seattle to work as an engineer at Boeing. "I've always loved airplanes and flight," says Bill. "The space program was really important to me as a kid. I still have a photo of Armstrong and Aldrin on the moon in my living room." It was Seattle that Bill began to combine his love of science with his flair for comedy, when he won a Steve Martin look-alike contest and developed dual careers as an engineer by day and a stand-up comic by night. Eventually he segued into a fortuitous combination of both science and comedy as Bill Nye the Science Guy, performing and writing on KING-TV's late-night ensemble comedy show, Almost Live! (also seen on Comedy central), guesting on The Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Club, and answering science and science-related questions on local and national radio programs. With fellow KING-TV alumni Jim McKenna and Erren Gottlieb, Bill has made a number of award-winning educational videos and programs for school-age and adult audiences, among them Fabulous Wetlands for the Washington State Department of Ecology. Along with his duties as head writer of Bill Nye the Science Guy, for which he has received five Daytime Emmy Awards, including Best Performer in a Children's Series, Bill is also the author of Bill Nye the Science Guy's Big Blast of Science, an introductory science text from Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, and Bill Nye the Science Guy's Please Consider the Following from Disney Press. He will release his third book, Big Blue Ocean, published by Disney Press (September 1999). Outside of the Science Guy realm, is career as an inventor is off to a flying start: Bill was recently issued a patent on a collapsible, water-filled magnifying glass.
