Actor Kevin Conway (born 29 May 1942; age 66) played the clone of Kahless the Unforgettable on TNG: "Rightful Heir".
In 1980, he starred as Dr. William Haber alongside Bruce Davison in the made-for-TV movie adaptation of Ursula K. Le Guin's science fiction work The Lathe of Heaven. On stage, Conway co-starred with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine actor Philip Anglim in the Broadway play The Elephant Man. Later, in 1982, the two reprised their roles in a made-for-TV adaptation of the play. He co-starred in the war epics Gettysburg and Gods and Generals. William Morgan Sheppard, William O. Campbell and Joseph Fuqua starred in both of these films. Conway had turned down the role of Théoden in the Lord of the Rings films to recreate his Gettysburg role of Buster Kilrain in Gods and Generals.
Conway appeared in 1998's Mercury Rising, written by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country scribes Lawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthal. He also had a role in the 2000 thriller Thirteen Days, with Jack Blessing and Steven Culp.
Conway had a recurring role as Seamus O'Reily on the HBO series Oz. He was the Control Voice in the 1995-2002 revival of The Outer Limits.
