[edit] Why changed name from Tucker to Visitor

How come Nana Visitor was born as Nana Tucker - when / why did she change her name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Belomulo (talk • contribs) 09:59, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Up and coming Birthday

Nana Visitor will be 50 years old on 2007-07-26. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Berniethomas68 (talk • contribs) 13:48, September 8, 2006

[edit] Picture

As the article is about the actress and not a DS9 character, it would be nice to have a picture of her without the prosthesis/make-up. --Clay Collier 06:35, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Should these sentences be split?

"She is claustrophobic. During the filming of the DS9 episode "Second Skin," Nana struggled terribly with the rubber make-up her character, Kira Nerys, had to wear."

I don't think claustrophobia would give you emotional feelings/problems about wearing prosthetic makeup. Claustrophobia is a fear of closed spaces, and it isn't like she was encased in concrete or locked in a crate or box or something. Thoughts, anyone? SmUX 18:40, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

A feeling of not being able to breathe is also associated with claustrophobia, and wearing heavy makeup and prosthetics blocks the pores, which often gives one the feeling of being suffocated.

[edit] Her mother?

Wasn't her mother a famous dancer who worked with Fosse?

[edit] makeup

She is claustrophobic. During the filming of the DS9 episode "Second Skin," Nana struggled terribly with the rubber make-up her character, Kira Nerys, had to wear.

Not to pick a nit, but I think it would be more accurate to say Nana Visitor was the one wearing make-up, not her character. If I recall the plot involved Kira being surgically altered to appear Cardasian, and attempting to convince her that she was Cardasian. If the character had been wearing make-up it would be hard to convince her of this. --202.168.39.41 (talk) 23:14, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
