Robert Pine is an American television actor with a career stretching back to the 1960s, and the father of Chris Pine, who later played James T. Kirk on film. He has two Star Trek credits of his own.
In the Voyager episode The Chute he plays Ambassador Liria, the Akritirian official who refuses to release Paris and Kim from a brutal prison.
On Star Trek: Enterprise he appears in Fusion as Tavin, the genial captain of the Vahklas, a ship crewed by Vulcans who are experimenting with their emotions. Tavin is courteous and curious, shares a meal with Archer, and offers a gentler view of the group's ideas than his crewman Tolaris.
