BILL ON STAR TREK: NEW VOYAGES
Bill Blair has appeared in front of the camera on many Star Trek episodes, but you might not immediately recognize him. Bill has donned alien masks and costumes on more than 35 episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, as well as many episodes of Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Enterprise. He has played Cardassians, Klingons, Vulcans, Jem Hadar, and a number of other alien characterizations created by Michael Westmore and others. Not only does he posses extensive stage, screen, and television acting credits (both in and out of make-up), but he is an accomplished make-up artist in his own right. Not only will Bill be lending his make-up talents to this effects intensive episode, but he will also play Commander Mackel Blodgette, another pivotal role in the “Blood and Fire” script. Bill’s fan club homepage is the best place to see his alien character work and find out what he is doing next. (BORROWED FROM THE GOOD PEOPLE AT NEW VOYAGES.)
2008 WILL BE A CRUISE AGAIN!
The time is going to be a little earlier in AUGUST 2008 this time to
accommodate a few people that have requested this and to be ahead of
hurricane season, but the last cruises have never had any issues with real bad weather or
changes being caused by hurricane threats.

| BIOGRAPHY
|
Bill was born and raised in Kent, Ohio and attended Kent State University
from kindergarten clear through college and graduated 1977 with a Bachelor of
Science degree in speech-telecommunications. Bill was very active in high
school theater and music.
It was in college that Bill chose to concentrate full-time on his music
career, playing in several bands, including Climax-- who had the hit Precious And
Few in 1972--and the Classics IV. During the early 1980's he toured the country
with his own group called Expression.
In 1982, after a lengthy recovery from a severe injury while touring with
Expression, he moved to Chicago. He shifted his career in entertainment toward
modeling, and this led to acting. Bill studied at John Robert Powers in
Chicago and became an instructor there for the next two years while pursuing his
new career. Bill spent a lot of shoe leather knocking on doors during those
early days in Chicago, and landed his first modeling job using only his left hand,
holding a silver circle ring for a MasterCard print commercial.
