| Tralane, Koloth TOS And DS9 |
A NJ native Mr Campbell played the all-powerful Trelane in the episode "The Squire of Gothos" and Koloth, a Klingon, in the classic ep "The Trouble with Tribbles," both of which aired in 1967. He reprised the role of Trelane for the video game Star Trek: Judgment Rites in 1993, returned for a 1994 episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine called Blood Oath and was a regular at Star Trek conventions and on cruises.
Beyond Trek Campbell sang with Elvis in Love Me Tender and co-starred in the violent Dementia 13: produced by Roger Corman and directed by then newbie Francis Ford Coppola
Other film credits include Operation Pacific Battle Circus The High and the Mighty Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte Portrait in Terror and Pretty Maids All in a Row written by Trek creator Gene Roddenberry
He made appearances countless other TV shows among them in O'Hara, U.S. Treasury opposite Trek's original Sulu George Takei
Trelane and Koloth were memorable thanks to Campbell's talents....and hold up all of these years later....
