George Takei played Hikaru Sulu in the original Star Trek series. He has reprised the role in the first six motion pictures, and "Flashback," an episode of Star Trek: Voyager. In Star Trek: The Animated Series, he provided the voice of Sulu, and also displayed his vocal talents playing other guest characters. In 1973, while the animated series was on the air, Takei ran for and narrowly lost a seat on the Los Angeles City Council. It was decided that while the campaign was going on, it would be unfair for Takei's likeness (but not necessarily his voice) to appear each week on television, which is why he "appears" in many animated episodes as someone other than Sulu.
He has narrated, and also recorded dialogue as Sulu, in numerous audio novels and interactive games. Due to the fact that Sulu did not appear in the episode "The Trouble with Tribbles," Takei was the only Original Series star to not appear in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 30th anniversary episode "Trials and Tribble-ations". However, this was made up for when he appeared on Star Trek: Voyager's 30th anniversary episode "Flashback".
On 28 October 2005, Takei decided to publicly "come out of the closet" as a homosexual, a story picked up by many in the newsmedia. This has been hailed by LGBT communities as a positive step for the larger gay community as well as for Star Trek, as the issue of the visible lack of openly gay characters on the series remains somewhat of a controversy.
On 9 January 2006, Takei was named the official announcer of the Howard Stern Show.
