American television director (1925–2012) who was the credited director of the troubled first-season Next Generation episode Code of Honor, though he was replaced before filming ended.
Russ Mayberry was an American director with hundreds of television credits, including The Brady Bunch, Ironside, Kojak, The Rockford Files and In the Heat of the Night.
His one Star Trek credit is Code of Honor, an early first-season episode of The Next Generation in which the Ligonian leader Lutan abducts Tasha Yar and she must fight his wife Yareena to the death.
Mayberry did not complete the episode: he was dismissed during the shoot and the remaining scenes were handled by first assistant director Les Landau, who was not credited and later became one of the franchise's regular directors. Mayberry died in 2012.
