David Ogden Stiers (born 31 October 1942; age 81) is a veteran actor who played Doctor Timicin in the Star Trek: The Next Generation fourth season episode "Half a Life" in 1991, performing opposite Majel Barrett as Lwaxana Troi.

He worked closely with dialogue coach Philip Weyland and had a three-room-trailer from the company Star Waggons.

Stiers is perhaps best known for his role as Major Charles Emerson Winchester III on the highly successful television series M*A*S*H from 1977 through 1983, for which he received two Emmy Award nominations.
