Patricia J. Tallman is an actress and former stuntwoman who appeared in several episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Star Trek: Voyager and in the seventh feature film Star Trek Generations. For most of her Trek appearances, she received no credit.
As an actress and stunt performer, she worked on 50 episodes across the Star Trek franchise.
Her very first Star Trek role was on Star Trek: The Next Generation for the episode “Power Play”, where she played a security officer. This single appearance was followed by a long-term relationship with Star Trek, as Tallman became part of the core stunt group. Because of her height and resemblance she doubled lead actresses Gates McFadden, Nana Visitor, and Terry Farrell as well as several guest actresses for the next eight years and played stunt acting parts as a Romulan, Bajoran, and several other aliens.
