https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/31/obituaries/nichelle-nichols-dead.htmlNichelle Nichols, the actress revered by “Star Trek” fans everywhere for her role as Lieutenant Uhura, the communications officer on the starship U.S.S. Enterprise, died on Saturday in Silver City, N.M. She was 89.
So sad, what a great loss. I had the chance to briefly meet and say hi to her at Stan Lee's convention that was at that year of his passing turned into LA Comic Con. She was such a nice and sweet lady, she has to go to her panel by the time we got inside the convention from the line outside but she was kind enough to say hi to us before she had to go. I'll always kick myself for us not getting their sooner enough to get a photo ops and autograph of her. May she RIP.
