LOS ANGELES — Robin Williams, who died Monday at 63, was a comedic inspiration for many performers, and he also was a brilliant dramatic actor.

In 1998, he won an Academy Award for best actor in a supporting role for his performance in “Good Will Hunting.”

In the video above, FOX31 Denver’s Chris Parente interviewed Williams in November 2011, shortly after his marriage.

Here are some reactions from those who worked with Williams and those who looked up to him professionally:
