Shatner, best known as Capt. James T. Kirk on “Star Trek,” and also famed as TV über cop T.J. Hooker, over-the-top “Boston Legal” lawyer Denny Crane, and a singer with a, ahem, unique vocal style, turns 75 Wednesday. […] Shatner was born March 22, 1931, in Montreal. He began to build his acting pedigree early, performing as a boy for the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. He has performed Shakespeare, on Broadway — and on American television, on “Playhouse 90″ and “Studio One.”arizona daily star
