Students at William Woods University came out in droves today to catch a glimpse of a Hollywood star.

Actor Val Kilmer held a question and answer session in Dulany Auditorium on campus.

Kilmer said he was happy to talk about anything from his experiences with other actor, to some of his own rough times in show business.

Students had questions about everything from his favorite movie to aspects of his personal life.

"One of the questions I asked him was if he was happy where he was, in his life [and] in his career. Because, being a theater major here at William Woods, I know it can be stressful all the hours you put into it and, if I think about doing this as a career, I'd like to know, you know, does it pay off in the end?" said William Woods theatre student Nick Hoover.

Val Kilmer starred in a one-man show, called 'Citizen Twain' Tuesday night in Dulany Auditorium.

On Saturday May 5th, Kilmer also will deliver the commencement address for the William Woods Spring graduating class.
