American child actor (1974 to 2011) who played the regenerated Spock as a nine-year-old boy on the Genesis planet in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock.
Carl Steven was an American child actor of the 1980s who later became known as the voice of young Fred Jones in the animated series A Pup Named Scooby-Doo.
In Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984) he was the first of four young performers to portray Spock's body as it is reborn and rapidly ages on the Genesis planet. Saavik and David Marcus find him as a silent Vulcan child in the snow near the empty torpedo casing, and he is wrapped in Spock's burial robe.
The role has no dialogue, since the reborn Spock has no mind until his katra is restored on Vulcan. Steven's other screen work included the film Teen Wolf.
