American set decorator who dressed the sets of The Next Generation from its second season, shared an Emmy for Sins of the Father, and later decorated Voyager and Enterprise.
Jim Mees joined Star Trek: The Next Generation as set decorator in its second season and worked closely with production designer Richard D. James for the rest of the run, furnishing everything from crew quarters to alien throne rooms.
He shared an Emmy Award for art direction for the third-season episode Sins of the Father, which introduced the Klingon Great Hall.
Mees went on to decorate Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Enterprise, giving him one of the longest tenures of any member of the art department.
