William Shatner began his acting career on radio in Canada when he was quite young. Born in 1931, he would have been around 15 years old in 1946.

He started performing on CBC Radio in Montreal, even before he went to university. This early experience in radio laid the groundwork for his extensive career in acting, eventually leading him to become a global icon as Captain Kirk in “Star Trek.”

The moral of the story is that audio has always been a training ground as much as a career for great artists.
