(written from a Production point of view)
Bobby Clark (born 1937) was a stunt performer on Star Trek: The Original Series.
Clark and fellow stuntman Gary Coombs played the Gorn captain in the TOS episode "Arena". Clark also appeared as an actor in at least three other episodes.
38 years after introducing the race in "Arena", Clark, as a guest of stunt coordinator Vince Deadrick, Jr. (whose father had been a fellow TOS stuntman) visited the set of ENT: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II" during the shooting of the scenes in which the Gorn made their first live-action appearance since that episode.
In 2009 he appeared in the British television documentary Bring Back Star Trek in which he reprised his role as the Gorn Captain with show host Justin Lee Collins standing into William Shatner's place in a parody of the famous scene in "Arena".
