hospital this morning after suffering a minor stroke.
Nichelle Nichols, who was Lieutenant Uhura on T-V’s original “Star Trek” and then in six ”Star Trek” movies, is being treated at an L-A-area hospital this morning after suffering a minor stroke. A talent agent says the
82-year-old Nichols is alert, in good spirits, and shows minor signs of mobility loss but no sign of paralysis. Nichols was one of the first black women to have a major feature role on a television series. Martin Luther King
Junior once called her a role model for black children and women.
