Cecily Adams, the actress who played Quark's mother Ishka a.k.a. Moogie on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, has died, her husband reported.

Jim Beaver posted to alt.obituaries that Adams, the 39-year-old daughter of Get Smart star Don Adams, died on the morning of March 3rd after a long illness.

Adams, who also worked as a casting director, had worked on such comedies as That 70s Show and 3rd Rock From the Sun.

As an actress she appeared on Murphy Brown, Party of Five and Just Shoot Me among other shows.

Beaver, who appeared in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Broken Bow", reported that he and Adams had a two-year-old daughter.

On Deep Space Nine, Moogie, a supporter of women's rights on Ferenginar, convinced the Grand Nagus to modernize the Ferengi.

Oh no. That's now three major Trek deaths in the last few months; one and two were Ensign Cutler and Matt Jeffries.

He was (I think) the art director of TOS. Or something. I don't know what he "officially" did, but he's responsible for creating the Salt-vampire, the Excalibans, various props and prosthetics, the Horta, *thinks* there's more, and I'll have to dig up my "Art of ST" book...

...*comes back* The Gorn, the laser/phaser pistols, the communicator, the tricorder... and he was a scultper so while Matt Jefries for instance designed the phaser it was Wah Chang who built it.
