Remembering Barry Jenner.
Deep Space Nine was filled with supporting characters who enriched the show and made its story believable. Most of these made far fewer appearances than it seems. Such is the case with Admiral William Ross. In only 12 episodes, Ross turned the tide of the war through his faith in Sisko and his firm yet thoughtful interactions with those in the field. The writing was important, but what really made it work was than who brought the character to life: Barry Jenner.
In this episode of The Orb, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing take a moment to remember Jenner following his untimely death. We look back at his prolific television career, discuss his pre-TV occupation and how it may have helped him on DS9, and explore how his portrayal of Admiral Ross opened doors that the writers may not have considered.
