Biography

Vaughn Armstrong is one of the longest-serving actors in the Star Trek franchise, having appeared in every Trek series (save the original). He has played twelve different characters over the years - a record unmatched by any other actor in Trek.

Armstrong's first appearance in Trek was in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Heart of Glory in which he played Commander Korris, a renegade Klingon who stole a cargo ship and tried to use it to attack his fellow Klingons (who he believed had gone "soft"). His other characters are:

Klingons:

Korath (Star Trek: Voyager episode "Endgame", also appearing in Star Trek: The Experience
Klaax (Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Sleeping Dogs")

Cardassians:

Gul Danar (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Past Prologue")
Seskal (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episodes "When it Rains..." and "The Dogs of War")

Romulan:

Telek R'Mor (Star Trek: Voyager episode "Eye of the Needle")

Borg:

Lansor/Two of Nine (Star Trek: Voyager episode "Survival Instinct")

Vidiian:

Vidiian Captain (Star Trek: Voyager episode "Fury")

Human:

Admiral Forrest (recurring role on Star Trek: Enterprise)
Captain Maximilian Forrest (Mirror Universe version of Admiral Forrest)

Hirogen:

Hirogen-Alpha (Star Trek: Voyager episode "Flesh and Blood (part 1)")

Kreetassan:

Kreetassan Captain (Star Trek: Enterprise episodes "Vox Sola" and "A Night in Sickbay")

While his most recent character, Admiral Forrest, was recently killed in action on Star Trek: Enterprise, Armstrong got the chance to play Forrest again in the two-part episode "In a Mirror, Darkly", in which the Mirror Universe version of Forrest appears.

Outside of Star Trek, Armstrong also appeared on Babylon 5 as a security guard affiliated with the Nightwatch in the episodes Messages from Earth and Point of No Return.

Armstrong's talents also extend into the musical arena, and his Trek-related blues songs are popular at convention appearances. His blues band includes fellow Trek actors Richard Herd (Admiral Owen Paris), Steve Rankin (Colonel Green and other roles), and Casey Biggs (Damar).

Armstrong has also appeared in an episode of Seinfeld in which he played a detective.
