John Paladin Lolita Fatjo Bonnie Moss Special Guests Ethan Peck The grandson of Hollywood legend and Oscar winning actor Gregory “To Kill a Mockingbird” Peck, Ethan Peck made his grand entry into Star Trek lore during the second season of Star Trek: Discovery as none other than one the franchise’s most iconic characters, Mr. Spock! Born in Los Angeles, he played a variety of sports in high school and studied the cello. He attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and won the 2009 Sonoma International Film Festival’s Best Actor award in 2009. He was appearing in films and television productions, such as That 70’s Show, 10 Things I Hate About You, The Curse of Sleeping Beauty, and The Honor List. After landing the role of Spock in Discovery, Ethan says he “dove” right into watching Star Trek’s original mid-60s run to learn about the character of Spock and Leonard Nimoy’s performances, even reading Nimoy’s two books on the subject: I Am Not Spock and the follow-up I Am Spock. During the first few months of filming, he would have Nimoy as Spock in his mind as he delivered his own performances, until he found the “centre of the character” within himself. This is the first time Ethan visits us at Trekonderoga! Join Ethan as he tours the stunning standing sets of the U.S.S. Enterprise, and don’t miss your chance to meet this amazing, fine young actor in person! Appears Friday & Saturday only Terry Farrell Terry Farrell brought to life the character of Jadzia Dax, a member of one the more interesting alien species from the Star Trek universe, the symbiont Trill. Over the course of six seasons on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Terry brought a mix of seriousness, humor and friendly playfulness in her relationships with the characters of Commander Sisko and Dr. Bashir, among others. Terry was born in the same state that was eventually christened as Captain Kirk’s fictional birthplace, Iowa. Already almost six feet tall in high school, she modeled for 18 months before turning to acting, appearing in the motion picture comedy Back to School, and then stints on television such as Quantum Leap and The Cosby Show. In the early 1990s, she joined the cast of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Her character was the focus of many popular episodes, allowing Terry to showcase her talents over several years. After DS9, Terry joined the cast of Becker, starring alongside Ted Danson for four seasons. As for the public side of her personal life, many Star Trek fans will know that Terry married Leonard Nimoy’s son Adam Nimoy just last year! This is Terry’s first visit to Trekonderoga – don’t miss the opportunity to meet Dax herself in the corridors of the Starship Enterprise, as she once roamed, in character as Dax, in probably the most popular episode of DS9, “Trials and Tribble-ations”, pictured here! Appears Friday, Saturday, & Sunday Featured Guests J.G. Hertzler One of the most popular Klingons is coming to Trekonderoga! See what General Martok really thinks of your beloved Enterprise as J.G. Hertzler prowls her corridors in full make-up and costume as the ever growly and crisp General – an appearance not to be missed! Hertzler was born in Georgia to his U.S. Air Force father and schoolteacher mother. He got the acting bug in University as he graduated with a political science degree. He worked for the Nixon Administration on the National Environmental Protection Act and continued practicing acting in theatre. Moving from the east coast to the west, he then appeared in a Quantum Leap episode in 1990, and then as a regular on the 1990s series Zorro. He began his Star Trek career in the first episode of Deep Space Nine, “Emissary,” as the Vulcan captain of the Saratoga. He auditioned for more roles on the series before being picked to read as Martok, and as his entry in Wikipedia puts it… At first, Hertzler portrayed Martok as a mild-mannered Klingon, but when he was asked to make him angrier, he picked up a chair and threw it into a wall. The chair's leg stuck briefly and he said he had also inadvertently ripped his thumbnail causing it to bleed, but it had impressed the auditors and he landed the part. J.G. played the character for three seasons on the series, including the changeling named Laas, and moved on to a guest appearance in Voyager alongside Dwayne Johnson, and two episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise. J.G. has been active on the convention circuit, wrote two Star Trek novels, a screenplay and has worked in recent politics and activism. While it is doubtful any Burke chairs will be thrown against any corridor walls on board the Enterprise during the Trekonderoga weekend, don’t miss this chance to meet J.G. Hertzler (and General Martok) in person this August! Appears Friday, Saturday, & Sunday Robin Curtis Robin Curtis arrived in Los Angeles in 1982. She first appeared in a first season episode of the popular science fiction television show Knight Rider. She formed a friendship with the head of Paramount’s casting department which led to that person recommending her for the role of Lieutenant Saavik in Leonard Nimoy’s Star Trek III – The Search for Spock. Robin met with Nimoy who cast her in the role the following day; Robin had now forever joined Star Trek lore. Robin also played Saavik in Star Trek IV – The Voyage Home in a short “This is good-bye” appearance. In 2002, Robin would provide audio commentary for Search for Spock in its “Collector’s Edition” DVD release. Robin also appeared as a Vulcan disguised as a Romulan in Star Trek – The Next Generation’s two-parter episode “Gambit” and later appeared in the Babylon 5 episode “Deathwalker”. Other television credits include MacGyver, Night Court, and The Equalizer, while film credits include Hexed, Ghost Story, and LBJ – The Early Years in the role of Jacqueline Kennedy. Robin was also active on the stage including appearing in the off-Broadway show The City Suite and Los Angeles’ Garden. In 2005, she debuted her one-woman show entitled Not My Bra, You Don’t! – The Sexual Odyssey of a Forty-Nine Year Old Woman. This is Robin’s second appearance with us at Trekonderoga! While she has made appearances at various conventions, she is rarely on the con circuit, so don’t miss this opportunity to meet and greet Robin Curtis in the corridors of the Starship Enterprise…! Appears Friday, Saturday, & Sunday David Frankham It isn’t every day you get to meet the original designer of the Starship Enterprise, the ill- fated character of “Larry Marvick,” who appears in the episode “Is There in Truth No Beauty?” – here is your chance to meet David Frankham, who performed as Marvick, at this year’s edition of Trekonderoga! David was born in Gillingham, Kent in southeast England; after serving in World War II, he entered the world of media by first working as a news reader, interviewer and producer for the BBC. He moved to Hollywood in the mid-1950s and became an actor. He voiced the character of Sgt. Tibbs the cat in Disney’s One Hundred and One Dalmatians, as well as appearing in motion pictures such as Return of the Fly, Ten Who Dared, Master of the World, Tales of Terror, The Spiral Road, King Rat, and The Great Santini. He was also busy on television from the 1950s to through the 1980s, appearing in such shows as Matinee Theatre, 77 Sunset Strip, Maverick, Men into Space, The Jack Benny Program, Dr. Kildare, Gomer Pyle: USMC, The Beverly Hillbillies, The Six Million Dollar Man and many more. Star Trek fans will of course remember him as the love- struck engineer Marvick who is driven insane by the sight of the Medusan ambassador. You’ll surely find him in Engineering, tending over the warp engines of the ship he designed, when you Make the Trek! to Ticonderoga!
