For a bit of fun, let's flip the script here, and introduce a nepo-parent! Jon Jon Briones appeared in the Star Trek: Picard episodes Penance and Assimilation as the Confederation Magistrate (and husband of President Annika Hansen). He is also the father of Picard regular actor Isa Briones, who played Dahj, Soji, Sutra, and Kore. 

Briones has a long career in both musical theatre, with his debut in Miss Saigon in 1989, and television. He appeared with his daughter in American Crime Story: The Assassination Of Gianni Versace, as well as American Horror Story: Apocalypse. 

In 2019, Briones was the recipient of the Visionary Award from the East West Players, which is a celebration of performers who highlight Asian Americans through their work.
