We consider the production of heavy-quark pairs in the collisions of polarized and unpolarized on-shell photons and present, in analytic form, the fully integrated total cross sections for total photon spins J{sub z}=0, {+-}2 at next-to-leading-order in QCD. Phenomenological applications include bb production, which represents an irreducible background to standard-model intermediate-mass Higgs-boson production, as well as tt production.
