  Newsmaker of the Week: Actor Alexander Gould
Gould: Not really, no. I would say the only thing that's kind of hard is that there is nothing really to react off of.
Gould: I've never done a play before, so they taught me how to be on stage, and how to work on stage and do that.
Gould: Yes, there is, because before that, I didn't know what to do on stage, or have good stage presence or anything like that.

 Gould redraws science and art boundaries: 11/98
Gould, the Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology and Professor of Geology at Harvard University, and curator of invertebrate paleontology in the Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology, offered an extended intellectual tour de force, full of fact, nuanced perspective and the humor that has made him one of America's best-known popularizers of evolution and geological science.
So ingrained is this vewpoint that Gould actually had a publisher of foreign editions of his books put its trademark ­ the familiar picture of a bent-backed ape evolving into upright man ­ on the cover of one of his titles without his approval.
Gould quoted 16th-century philosopher Giordano Bruno, who was burned at the stake for other reasons, as saying that concepts can act both as vehicles and chains: "I talked most about how classification can act as chains when they are false, but classifications as theories of thought can also be vehicles of understanding," Gould said.

 Harvard Gazette: Gould reads from latest opus
Gould, the Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology, spoke March 23 about the central thesis of his book, then signed copies at a reception afterward.
Gould said that he has been working on the 1,433-page opus for more than 20 years and that when he was diagnosed with cancer in 1982, he believed that he had "almost zero chance of finishing it."
Darwin's model of how natural selection worked, Gould said, was influenced by the theories of Adam Smith, the 18th century economist who introduced the metaphor of the "Invisible Hand," the mechanism that brings about equilibrium in the economy through the unregulated struggles of individuals to maximize their gains.

 Remembering Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Gould was born on Sept. 10, 1941, in Queens, the son of Leonard Gould, a court stenographer, and Eleanor Gould, an artist and entrepreneur.
Gould is survived by his wife; his mother; his two sons from a previous marriage, Jesse Gould of Cambridge, Mass., and Ethan Gould of Boston; his stepson, Jade Allen of Gainesville, Fla.; and his stepdaughter, London Allen of Manhattan.
Gould challenged this view, arguing in his most notorious essay that much of life has no function, no purpose, and is at best a by-product of other forces, as are the functionless areas at the tops of columns in medieval churches—"spandrels" that simply are, without intent or end.

 Stephen Jay Gould - (1941 - 2002)
Gould, along with Niles Eldredge, a paleontologist at the New York's Museum of Natural History, developed an evolutionary theory called "punctuated equilibrium," where long periods of evolutionary stability are broken by shorter spurts of evolutionary change, perhaps sparked by external events such as climate change or the impact of a comet.
Gould, the Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology, spent his professional career at Harvard.
Gould's most recent book, "The Structure of Evolutionary Theory" (2002), is a 1,433-page opus that took him more than 20 years to complete.

 'Nemo' star acts on love for ocean - The Honolulu Advertiser - Hawaii's Newspaper
Alexander Gould, the voice of the adorable animated fish Nemo in Disney-Pixar's summer hit, "Finding Nemo," says he's an ordinary kid who has become an advocate for the environment, and particularly the ocean.
Gould was 6 when he tried out for "Nemo," surviving callbacks and eventually landing the job at 7.
Home-schooled, Alexander is a fourth-grader who said his life is pretty much stable, even ordinary, except he goes to one audition a week during a typical week, and five in a day in a busy time.

 Young Actor Puts Acting Gills To Work In Voicing 'Nemo' - News - WDSU.com | WDSU   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Gould is the central character of film as Nemo, the spawn of an over-protective father, Marlin (Albert Brooks), who is struggling with the fact that his son is growing up.
Unlike his previous acting gigs, Gould soon found out that he'd essentially be working alone in doing his voice role for "Finding Nemo." In fact, it's standard practice in the animation industry for actors to voice their roles in the studio at separate times from their colleagues.
Oddly enough, Gould didn't meet any of his fellow voice cast members until the press junket for the film in mid-May. Among those he chatted with were his screen father Marlin (Brooks), his search companion Dory (DeGeneres) and Dafoe, who plays the leader of his buddies in the Sydney aquarium tank.

 Star Trek's Greatest Moments: Ultimate Dreck?
Alexander, a long time fan and one-time performer on Voyager (he played Kurros, a telepath interested in buying Seven of Nine), simply never looked comfortable in the yellow velour and bad toupee that were the hallmark of a classic starship captain.
Perhaps it wasn't that his feet hurt from filling Shatner's boots so much as the fact that he was simply embarrassed at having to spout such insipid dialogue and ashamed to have his name attached to such a dog of a program.
In the 30 second clip that was shown, John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase recreated Kirk, McCoy and Spock more accurately and effectively than Alexander, Gould and Johnston managed at any point in the show.

 Finding Nemo DVD Reviewed on RevolutionHomeTheater.com
Marlin has been overprotective of his little spawn Nemo (voiced by Alexander Gould) ever since the untimely death of his wife and 399 eggs in an incident that occurs just offscreen in the opening sequence.
Disc One also has an intelligent making-of documentary, a “color script” which has lovely conceptual art for all of the main sequences – and a set of “video aquariums” that are either waiting to be brought to life by an Easter Egg this reviewer couldn’t find or pretty but very dull, uninhabited CGI seascapes.
Young actor Gould hosts a kid-friendly tour of Pixar, there’s a nice comprehension/reflexes-testing game for youngsters, a storytime feature and more video aquariums that, this time, feature CGI fish.

 Finding Nemo (2003): Albert Brooks, Alexander Gould, Ellen DeGeneres - PopMatters Film Review
At 34, I was a smidge stressed; at four, I probably would have been crying.
Finding Nemo follows the "adventures" of clown fish and single father Marlin (Albert Brooks in all his neurotic glory), who is overprotective of his only son, Nemo (Alexander Gould).
You can't really blame him: in the opening scene, his wife (Elizabeth Perkins) and the other few hundred eggs that would have been Nemo's sibs are wiped out by a truly scary looking, sharp-toothed fish on the first day they've moved to new digs in the Great Barrier Reef.
