American actress and broadcaster who played Caithlin Dar, the idealistic young Romulan representative on Nimbus III, in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier.
Cynthia Gouw is an American actress, model and television journalist. Her best-known film role is Caithlin Dar in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989).
Dar arrives in Paradise City on Nimbus III as the new Romulan delegate, full of enthusiasm for the so-called Planet of Galactic Peace, and is met with weary cynicism by her Federation and Klingon counterparts, St. John Talbot and General Korrd. All three are seized by Sybok's followers and used as bait to lure a starship.
Like the other hostages she comes under Sybok's influence and travels with the Enterprise to Sha Ka Ree. Gouw later worked as a news reporter and presenter on American television.
