17 Star Trek Actors Who Died In 2023

17. Danny Goldring

Danny Goldring passed away in 2022 after our tribute list for last year had been compiled, so he fittingly is the first name on our list this year. He may best be remembered by Star Trek fans for his appearance in Deep Space Nine's fifth season episode ...Nor The Battle To The Strong.

Born in Illinois, Goldring tried his hands at several careers before he moved into acting. He served in the Signal Corps in the United States Army, before switching upon discharge to construction. His first forays into acting would be on stage, though he did tour for a couple of years as part of a puppeteering company.

He appeared in both Voyager and Enterprise as well, racking up five appearances overall. He played a Cardassian Legate, a Hirogen hunter, as well as both a Nausicaan and Tarket captain.

Goldring passed away on December 2nd, 2022, at age 76.
