My Take

For me, Nana Visitor will always be Kira Nerys. What I admire about her run on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is that she got to play a former resistance fighter who carried real anger and faith, not just a sidekick in a uniform. Watching Major Kira grow into Colonel over seven seasons felt earned. I also like that she didn't stop there, putting in solid work on Wildfire and across stage and film. Born in New York in 1957 to a theatrical family, she clearly came up loving the craft, and that lived-in commitment is exactly what keeps me coming back to her performances.
