Actress Joanna Cassidy (born 2 August 1945; age 78) is an actress who portrayed T'Les, the mother of T'Pol, in two episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise
She is perhaps best known for her supporting role in the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, in which she co-starred with actor Christopher Lloyd. She is also known for playing the role of Zhora in the 1982 science fiction classic Blade Runner.
Cassidy began her film career with a bit part in 1968's Bullitt, which also featured TOS guest star Vic Tayback. She followed this with a supporting role in 1973's The Laughing Policeman, co-starring Star Trek: Insurrection actor Anthony Zerbe.
In 1984, Cassidy earned an Emmy-nomination for her role in the short-lived television sitcom Buffalo Bill, on which TOS guest star John Fiedler also starred. In 1997, she co-starred in the TV movie The Second Civil War. This movie featured a whole slew of fellow Star Trek alumni, including Brian Keith, Dick Miller, Ron Perlman, William Schallert, and Star Trek: Voyager star Robert Picardo.
She also made several appearances as Dr. Madison Wesley on the television series Diagnosis Murder, from 1999 through 2000. From 2001 through 2005, she had recurring role as Margaret Chenowith on the hit HBO series Six Feet Under. Her character was married to Dr. Bernard Chenowith, played by DS9 guest star, Robert Foxworth. She and Foxworth had previously worked together in four episodes of the primetime soap opera Falcon Crest in 1982 and would again co-star together in the Enterprise episode "Awakening". The two most recently reunited for the movie Kiss the Bride, to be released in 2008.
In 2006, Cassidy was a recurring guest star on ABC's Boston Legal, starring TOS actor William Shatner and DS9 actor Rene Auberjonois. She played the love interest (and brief wife) for Shatner's character, Denny Crane. The following year, Cassidy appeared on NBC's Heroes in the episode "Truth and Consequences," along with Nichelle Nichols and Zachary Quinto.
