If anyone remembers those Star trek tear-off calendars with a page for each day, there was one page that I found collecting dust behind my bookshelf from December 5 & 6 of 1997 or 1998. It was a picture of the landing party from "The Ship." It listed the character name and the actor's name, and for T'Lor, it had the actor being a man named Ken Lesco.
Lo and behold, this credit was not listed on his IMDb page, nor was he credited in the episode, in the Encyclopedia, or on any DS9 web site. This isn't really surprising, since he's an extra, but for all of you who want a complete cast list for "The Ship," you can add on Ken Lesco as playing the Tiburon T'Lor.
(FYI, I did add his name to his IMDb page, and it is now there on the site. Apparently, this guy's a stuntman.)

Now there's a whole lot of tossing & turning that I won't have to worry about doing tonight... Posted by Captain-class, Mike-variant (Member # 709) on :
this reminds me of something i was wondering about DS9 s5.. who was the person who won the 'be an alien on DS9' contest that came with all of the Playmates toys that year.. ive often wondered if we actually saw the person onscreen or not. for a while i thought it was T'Lor

Like I said, it's for those who care. He was probably just one of the stuntmen who regularly acted on the show but went uncredited. One day someone said "You want to play this guy 'T'Lor'?" and he said "yes."
