Abraham Sofaer (1 October 1896 – 21 January 1988; age 91) was born in Rangoon, Burma. His first acting job was in 1931, and he worked steadily, if in small parts, until the early 1970s. Because of his nationality, he played many Native American roles. He made two Star Trek appearances (one of them a voiceover). He costarred with Arlene Martel (who was billed as Arline Martel) in the "Demon With a Glass Hand" episode of The Outer Limits, which was written by Harlan Ellison. Along with Felix Locher, Richard Hale, Ian Wolfe, Judith Anderson, Celia Lovsky, Charles Seel, and Morgan Farley, he is one of only eight credited Star Trek actors to have been born in the nineteenth century.
