Ann de Forest

Kellam de Forest served as a paid consultant during the time of the original Star Trek television series. His “De Forest Research Service” did script clearance in Hollywood during the entire run of the show. During this time, he made significant contributions to Star Trek’s content. Ann de Forest is one of three children interviewed for the chapter devoted to Kellam’s contributions in my book Inspired Enterprise. Today, Ann writes fiction and nonfiction that often centers on the resonance of place. She is a contributing writer for Hidden City Philadelphia and editor of Extant, the magazine of the Preservation Alliance of Greater Philadelphia.
