Canadian actor and singer, born 1939 and the original Sweeney Todd on Broadway, who appeared as Kathryn Janeway's late father, Admiral Janeway, in the Voyager episode Coda.
Len Cariou is a Canadian stage and screen actor who won a Tony Award for creating the title role in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. His films include The Four Seasons, About Schmidt and Spotlight, and he played Henry Reagan throughout the police drama Blue Bloods.
In Voyager he appears in the third-season episode Coda. After a shuttle crash, Janeway seems to die and to watch her crew mourn her, and the figure of her father, a Starfleet admiral who drowned years earlier, arrives to guide her on.
Cariou's character is in fact an alien presence that feeds on the dying and is using a loved face to lure her into its matrix; Janeway sees through it and refuses to go.
