Letters to Star Trek is a reference book first published in 1976. Edited by Susan Sackett, at the time the personal executive assistant to Gene Roddenberry, the book collected assorted fan letters to Roddenberry, with responses from the producer. Among the topics discussed was the status of the then-proposed Star Trek movie, several years before the release of Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
