Walter Koenig
Actor
Los Angeles, CA
Biography:
Walter Koenig is best known for his recurring television portrayals both of the hated, intensely-driven Alfred Bester (Babylon 5), and the likable, perpetually cheerful Pavel Chekov (Star Trek). His recurring role of Bester on Babylon 5 was voted as "Best Guest Villain" in a poll of over one hundred thousand fans, and in later polls was voted both "The Man We Most Love to Hate" and "The Best Villain in a Series: Most Evil and Complicated Character".
Walter's film work includes the first seven Star Trek feature films, for which he earned two Saturn Award Best Supporting Actor nominations. His many other films have been independent projects with challenging roles. Walter also has a long and varied resume of stage work including over three dozen productions.
