Subject: Celeste Yarnall who played Yeoman Martha Landon in the Star Trek: The Original Series second season episode The Apple
Celeste Yarnall (26 July 1944 – 7 October 2018; age 74) was an actress
who played Yeoman Martha Landon in the Star Trek: The Original Series
second season episode "The Apple".
She filmed her scenes between Monday 17 July 1967 and Monday 24 July
1967 at Desilu Stage 10.
Yarnall was offered a choice by casting director Joseph D'Agosta to
either play the yeoman in the upcoming episode "The Apple"
or wait until a more substantial guest role would be available for
her, probably costuming her up as an alien beauty, making full use of
her looks. Yarnall chose the first option, because she liked the
script and the part, and was worried if she might miss that promised
other chance.
She wore Grace Lee Whitney's uniform in the episode, which was
re-fitted for her.
