Hannah Cheesman on Airiam, Star Trek Discovery and a Career Behind the Camera | Clonestar Podcast

Hannah Cheesman sat down with Mike and Jodi to talk about taking on one of Star Trek Discovery's most unique roles, what it meant to bring Lt. Commander Airiam to life from beneath prosthetics and makeup, and a career that spans acting, writing, directing, and producing. Hannah played Airiam throughout Discovery's second season — a character whose tragic death in "Project Daedalus" became one of the most talked-about moments in the series. She also returned to the role in season three and season five. Away from Trek, Hannah has written on Orphan Black and Workin' Moms, directed a Lifetime film executive produced by Whoopi Goldberg, and created the award-winning web series Whatever, Linda. A conversation about playing a character unlike anything else on television, and what it takes to build a life on both sides of the camera.
