RE: RE: RE: r..i...p...grace lee whitney...nsc

Her substance problems came later. The REAL reason she was let go/written out, was a couple of things. One, of course, was money. She was getting about $850 an episode at the time - ok money for a secondary character on TV in those days. But a bigger problem was that they simply could not find anything for her to do - she couldn't be a love interest or Captain Kirk, and she wasn't an essential member of the crew. On the other hand, James Doohan, who was making the same salary with only a five show guarantee for the first season, was proving that Scott was a pretty interesting character, and a Chief Engineer is a MUCH more essential member of the crew than a Captain's Yeoman.

There is a highly recommended series of books about each of Trek's three seasons called, THESE ARE THE VOYAGES... - very detailed, and very interesting.

Rest in Peace Grace...
