John Nowak is a stuntman and stunt actor who served as main stunt double for Patrick Stewart on Star Trek: The Next Generation and for Robert Picardo on Star Trek: Voyager. He also doubled Stewart in the first three TNG films. Trousers, worn by Nowak in a stunt scene in Star Trek: Insurrection, a fencing costume, and the costume from the episode "Gambit, Part II" were sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay . [1] [2] [3] Nowak was featured in the special "Strange New Worlds: The Valley of Fire" on the Star Trek Generations (Special Edition).

In the '80s, Nowak appeared in the action comedy Any Which Way You Can (1980, with Roy Jenson, George Murdock, Logan Ramsey, Chuck Hicks, and stunts by Robert Herron, Gene LeBell, and Nick Dimitri), performed and coordinated the stunts in the horror thriller Scream (1981), and performed in Clint Eastwood's crime thriller Sudden Impact (1983, along with Christine Ann Baur, Carey Loftin, and Paula Moody).
