Comments such as “has been, born again, old drunk ” say much more about yourself as a human being than they do of Grace lee Whitney, a beautiful woman who was and should have continued to be a much more utilized member of the Trek family as intended by Gene Roddenberry! I too had a crush on GLW as a child and still revel in her appearances every time I rewatch TOS! It would have made more sense to include her as a regular, even if not as a love interest for Kirk, than a seemingly endless string of yeomans throughout the series run! Grace is just that as her name denotes, “Graceful” and a kind “gracious” human being, how dare someone attack such a lovely person! Shame on you, truly you do not prescribe to the Gene Roddenberry philosophies you claim to … the message of Trek has been lost on you… too bad for you!

I saw a recent photo of Ms. Whitney, I think dated 2006-7. She is still beautiful. I had a crush on her as did all my guy friends who were trekkies. I realise I still do! We all age, and she has done it so very gracefully. Beautiful.

Yeoman Rand became a minor character only because of she is a victim of circumstance…. her character was booted from the show. If you watch the early episodes, it is easy to see that she was the most prominent female crewmember on board the Enterprise, a mantle inherited by Lt. Uhura.

Re: 20 _ me too. I’m 38. I was MAD about Yeoman Rand when I was a kid. Charlie X was just the bee’s knees! Blinded by my crush then and reactivating now since bringing it up again – I would want to see more of Rand in any capacity. Even if she is 75 years old today. I periodically search for “Grace Lee Whitney” news/bits and pieces on the Internet still. TOS was magic and she was part of the magic.

Well we can all dispute the existance / non-existance of GOD till the cows come home…what is NOT in dispute is my eternal attraction for the still lovely Grace Lee Whitney.

She’s still a girl I’d like to have a quiet drink with…

How do I book Grace Lee Whitney for a speaking engagement at the Beacon House of San Pedro? I am Donnie Ferguson, master magician/stage hypnotist, now in recovery, and doing public speaker/relations liason work for this fine organization. I spoke with Grace back in 2000, then lost track of her. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Contact me at my email address:
