Norman Snow (born 29 March 1950; age 74) is the actor who played Torin in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Rightful Heir".
Hailing from Little Rock, Arkansas, Snow is best known for playing the evil Xur in the 1984 science fiction film The Last Starfighter. Among the cast were fellow Star Trek performers Marc Alaimo, Barbara Bosson, Kay E. Kuter, and Meg Wyllie. (Wil Wheaton also acted in the film, but most of his scenes were deleted from the final theatrical release.)
