Template:Realworld Richard Riehle (born 12 May 1948; age 75) is a prolific character actor from Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, who has appeared in three of the four Star Trek spin-offs, as well as over 50 other television series and about twice as many films. He first appeared as Batai in Star Trek: The Next Generation fifth season episode "The Inner Light" in 1992. He then played Seamus in two episodes of Star Trek: Voyager, "Fair Haven" and "Spirit Folk". His most recent Star Trek role was that of Doctor Jeremy Lucas in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Cold Station 12" and "The Augments". His lab coat from "Cold Station 12" was sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay. [1]
Television work
Riehle made his episodic television debut in 1989 with a guest appearance in the popular science fiction series Quantum Leap, starring future Star Trek: Enterprise actors Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell. He made another appearance on the show the following year. He also made three guest appearances on L.A.

Riehle also had a recurring role as Uncle Dave on the short-lived TV sitcom Married to the Kellys (2003-04), which co-starred Sam Anderson and Bruce Gray.
