Star Trek Cast: Where Are They Now?

13. Jane Wyatt

Jane Wyatt was born in 1910 (happy 110 year birthday!) and of course appeared in Journey To Babel and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home as Amanda Grayson, Spock's Human Mother. The character has returned in Star Trek: Discovery, played by Mia Kershner.

Wyatt was working in Hollywood during one of its most fascinating (and turbulent) periods. She appeared in the film Lost Horizon during the Second World War, though she spoke on the film's message as being gutted for being released at the wrong time.

Her career suffered as she was outspoken against Senator Joseph McCarthy, who was heading the HUAC investigations. She would become most well known for her roles in Father Knows Best (NBC) and, of course, Star Trek.

She would go on to appear in a recurring role in St. Elsewhere, alongside Norman Lloyd - who himself would appear as Professor Galen in Star Trek: The Next Generation. She passed away in 2006, four years short of her 100th birthday, at her home in Bel Air, California.
