Meet the STARS of STORM DRAIN

TIM RUSS

Tim Russ


   Emmy Award-winner Tim Russ is most well-known for his role of Lt. Tuvok, the Vulcan science officer aboard the USS Voyager.

   Russ has been extensively involved in the Star Trek franchise, as a voice and film actor, writer, director and producer. He played several minor roles before landing the role as the main character Tuvok.
   Russ went into Voyager as a dedicated Trekkie with an extensive knowledge of Vulcan lore and has played the following roles in Star Trek:
   In 1995, Russ co-wrote the story for the Malibu Comics Star Trek: Deep Space Nine #29 and 30, with Mark Paniccia.
   Russ performed voice acting roles as Tuvok for the computer games Star Trek: Voyager – Elite Force and Star Trek: Elite Force II.

   Russ is also the director and one of the stars of the fan series Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, the first third of which was released in December 2007, with the remaining two-thirds released in 2008.

   Russ's character's name D.C. Montana in The Highwayman was a reference to Trek writer D. C. Fontana.

   In 1990 he appeared in an episode of Freddy's Nightmares. The episode had multiple quotes and hints suggesting to Star Trek fandom, such as: "Beam me up Scotty," "Captain! The dilithium crystals are running out," and Tim Russ' character being named Picard. This can be considered an early precursor to his extensive Star Trek career.

   Russ is directing and co-starring in Star Trek: Renegades, and in both 2013 and 2014 reprised his role as the voice of Tuvok in the MMO Star Trek Online.
