![]() ![]() But most times nowadays, I bring things to show or perform at the conventions. Russ: I do still go to the cons and I still get some of the usual questions about the show. What are the fans, all these years later, still most interested in hearing about from you? Russ: I actually have (on my acting reel) a scene from "Meld." (It’s the one) where Tuvok loses control of his emotions in sick bay. If you were going to put together an acting reel to show prospective producers/directors/casting agents, what are some of the Tuvok bits from Voyager you'd include on that reel? Overall, I liked the stories they came up with. I would simply wait for the next script to come out, and sometimes either agree or disagree with what they had laid out for me if it was a heavy Tuvok episode. Russ: Aside from any suggestions I might have had for the writers for my character, the evolution of Tuvok in the series was entirely up to the writers and producers. How satisfied were you with Tuvok's arc/evolution and also with the acting challenges the role provided you? Vulcans are such intriguing characters, but also have to be limiting for the actors playing them. As far as my memory of it, yes, every day that goes by it seems to fade farther into the past. And it was also a financial boost, obviously, which has allowed me to not have to worry about so much about when the next job might happen. ![]() It opened up opportunities for me that I am still benefiting from today. Russ: Voyager was definitely a major turning point in my career. Is it still up there among the highlights of your career, is it a credit receding deeper into the past, or maybe a bit of both? recently caught up with Russ for an exclusive interview in which he looked back at Voyager and caught us up on his current endeavors. He still acts – he was a regular on Samantha Who? and has a recurring role on iCarly - just directed a couple of new films (the short War of Heaven and the feature A Night at the Silent Movie Theater), authored a children’s book ( Bugsters), and is still recording and performing music. Voyager ended its run in 2001, and Russ has continued on a similar path. Russ, of course, spent seven seasons on Voyager, during which he directed the episode “Living Witness” and spread his wings as an artist by writing/producing/directing short films and a feature, penning comics, releasing an album of his music and more.
