played an all powerful and amoral child who
completely dominates his town.  He later reprised
the role, playing a grown up father who has a
daughter with similar powers in the second revival
of the Twilight Zone. He also played a Starfleet
member in the acclaimed Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
episode The Siege of AR-558 (DS9 episode)|The

Unlike many child actors, he entered the
profession at his own insistence, and his parents

carefully invested Billy's income, and thereby
