Susan Sackett (born 18 December 1943; age 80) was the production associate on Star Trek: The Next Generation. She also served as the personal executive assistant to Gene Roddenberry on Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, and Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Sackett worked with Roddenberry for more than seventeen years, until his death in October 1991.

She appeared in the Star Trek: The Motion Picture recreation deck scene as an Enterprise science division crewmember. There was also a close up of the balcony with reaction of the crew to the destruction of Epsilon IX station filmed, but later cut. Sackett was one of the four female extras who received special outfits because of their heights. [1] Sackett also appeared as a science division ensign in the TNG first season episode "The Neutral Zone". In her scene Sackett wore Marina Sirtis' costume from "Encounter at Farpoint".

Furthermore, she co-wrote two episodes for the series with writing partner Fred Bronson: "Ménage à Troi" and the story for "The Game". Apart from the books she wrote (see below), she also submitted articles and interviews with Roddenberry to the Starlog magazine as well as several "Star Trek Reports", keeping readership appraised about the progress of the production of The Motion Picture, starting in issue 6, 1977.

Her name can be seen on the dedication plaque of the USS Enterprise-D throughout TNG. She is listed on the plaque as Admiral Susan Sackett.
