Drusilla – Lois Jewell
Despite the fact that Jewell’s role on Star Trek was fairly limited, she still went on to have an interesting career. After Star Trek she went on to appear in The Flying Nun. Before acting, she even had a stint as a model; worked in cosmetics/fashion around Europe and New York. Jewell only became an actress after the opportunity was brought to her after moving to California. After deciding that acting wasn’t her passion, she went on to work in business. Jewell passed away in 2014 aged 76.
Counselor Deanna Troi – Marina Sirtis
Sirtis was one of the few actresses who actually stayed in the industry for a while afterwards. When the show concluded, she reprised the role on four separate occasions in the films. At 31, she moved to L.A. from London in order to feature. Before Star Trek, she appeared in a few British films, many of which were somewhat controversial.
