biography
Standing at five feet tall, with blonde hair, a constant, if endearing, smirk on his face, and a sardonic wit, composer, singer and actor Paul Williams won fame as both an actor and songwriter. His landmark year was 1977 when he shared both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award with Barbra Streisand for the song "Evergreen" from the film "A Star Is Born" (1976), was paired with comedian Pat McCormick as filthy rich racers Big and Little Enos in the first of three "Smokey and the Bandit" movies and wrote the theme song for TV's "The Love Boat" (ABC). Williams has been far less visible in the 90s
