American actor who played the arrogant Starfleet propulsion specialist Kosinski in the first-season Next Generation episode Where No One Has Gone Before, and was later widely known as Dr Charles Kroger in Monk.
Stanley Kamel (1943 to 2008) was an American character actor with a long list of television guest roles. In Star Trek he appeared once, as Kosinski in the first-season Next Generation episode Where No One Has Gone Before.
Kosinski comes aboard the Enterprise-D to tune the warp engines and takes the credit for improvements that are really the work of his quiet assistant, the Traveler. Kamel plays him as a man whose bluster collapses once the ship is flung a billion light years from home.
Outside Star Trek he had recurring parts in Melrose Place and Beverly Hills, 90210, and is best remembered as the patient psychiatrist Dr Charles Kroger in the detective comedy Monk.
