Beam Me Up, Scotty! The Hottest Women Who Have Appeared On Star Trek
Nancy Kovack as Nona
Nancy Kovack played the role of the stunning Nona on the Season 2 episode titled “A Private Little War.” In this episode, Nona is the wife of a guy named Tyree. Poor Tyree is completely under her control. Someone on the Star Trek crew really dug deep for this one, and we’re hoping it’s not because they felt stuck in their marriage!
Nona had healing powers and was an excellent dancer. She eventually healed Captain Kirk with her herbs after he got attacked by a Mugato. She went a little loopy afterwards in the episode because she thought the villagers around her were going to take over. She eventually died (one of the easiest ways in the book to write off a character).
Nancy Kovack
Kovack has both brains and beauty. She began attending college at the age of 15 and graduated at 19. She worked as a radio deejay and won eight titles in beauty pageants. After college, Kovack was discovered at a wedding and began taking TV acting jobs in New York. One of her first gigs was as one of Jackie Gleason’s “Glea Girls.”
Kovack’s acting skills led her to an Emmy nomination in 1969. She has since retired and married the famous maestro, Zubin Mehta, who was the director of the Los Angeles and New York Philharmonic. They have two children.
