The only other series I worked on a regular basis was Benson, and that was a sitcom, so there really wasn't a chance to go deeply into the characters.

At this point we've answered about every question you could possibly imagine about Deep Space Nine, so we do this thing called Theatrical Jazz, where we do a show of bits and pieces of things from plays and literature, poetry... stuff that we like. It's fun.

So, yes, the five years that we've been working on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine has evidenced a real deepening of all the characters, not only mine.

I just wait for something to present itself, and then I consider it.

I love the fact that it's not only about Star Trek, but about science fiction in general, and science.

The highest happiness is a by-product of worthy work well done.

The writers and producers always have an idea, then they cast the role and the instrument starts to tell them how to play the music.
