Virginia Madsen is an American actor, born in 1961, whose films include Dune, Candyman and Sideways, the last of which brought her an Academy Award nomination.
In Star Trek: Voyager she guest stars in the fourth-season episode Unforgettable, first shown in 1998. She plays Kellin, a member of the Ramuran species, whose biology causes others to lose all memory of them within hours. Kellin asks for asylum and tells Chakotay that she spent weeks aboard the ship earlier and that the two of them fell in love, something he has no means of recalling.
When her own memories are erased by her people, it is Chakotay who must tell the story to her.
