Sherman Howard (born 11 June 1949; age 74) is the actor who appeared as Endar in the Star Trek: The Next Generation fourth season episode "Suddenly Human", Syvar in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine third season episode "Shakaar", and T'Greth in the Star Trek: Voyager seventh season episode "Prophecy". In addition he provided additional voices for the video game Star Trek: Armada II.

Howard, who was born as Howard Lee Sherman in Chicago, Illinois, was once a cast member of Ryan's Hope, which also starred Kate Mulgrew. However, he is best known as Lex Luthor on three of the four seasons of TV's Superboy, (which became The Adventures of Superboy). Deep Space Nine's Salome Jens played Martha Kent in the series. He was considered for the same role on Superman: The Animated Series, but Clancy Brown was cast instead. Later, he voiced Derek Powers/Blight in the first season of Batman Beyond, also starring Michael Ansara, Terri Garr, Clyde Kusatsu, Ian Patrick Williams, and Marc Worden; George Takei played Powers's henchman in the pilot episode.

Howard also appeared in the films Day of the Dead, Lethal Weapon 2 (1989), K-9 (1989), and Casualties of War, as well as The Stand (1994). Lately, however, he has been primarily supplying his voice to numerous video games, although he did appear in Eulogy, which featured René Auberjonois of Deep Space Nine. On Seinfeld, he was "cured" when Kramer's Junior Mint fell inside of him during surgery. He was inspired by George (Jason Alexander) buying his art.

Howard later lent his voice to the characters Oliver Philips and Aldous Worthington in the 2010 video game Red Dead Redemption, with Anthony De Longis and Barry Lynch. In 2011 he had a guest role as Chip Shooter Haight in the Homeland episode "The Good Soldier", starring Maury Sterling.
