The Star Trek star, who died Friday at age 83, published The Full Body Project, a photography book featuring plus-sized female nudes, after one full-figured fan asked if he would consider taking pictures of her and her friends.
"It really disturbed him that women who considered themselves overweight had this terrible feeling about themselves," Natalie Angier, the author of the book's introduction, told Mashable. "He wanted to show the world that there’s beauty to be found in different body types."
