Celebrity Guests - 4 New Guests Added!


John Billingsley
is best known in the Sci-Fi world as Dr. Phlox in Star Trek: Enterprise. During a hiatus John appeared opposite Denzel Washington in Carl Franklin's film Out of Time, playing a larcenous but warm-hearted small town coroner. Upon the conclusion of Enterprise's run, John returned to guesting on TV: NCIS, West Wing, various CSI's, Cold Case, Nip/Tuck, The Closer, Gideon's Crossing, Six Feet Under, NYPD Blue, Ghost
Whisperer , and, in a recurring role, as the evil Vice-President's hapless (and toothless) brother on Prison Break.

In 2006, John was cast as a series regular for the third (and hopefully not the final) time on the ABC show The Nine. He played Egan Foote, a depressed underachiever thrust into the spotlight when his heroic actions help foil a bank robbery.

Since then, more TV (Criminal Minds, Without A Trace, Journeyman, Scrubs, Eli Stone, 24, Grey's Anatomy), more movies (2012, The Least of These, 26 Miles, The Last Word, The Ripple Effect). Currently, he is recurring on True Blood, Alan Ball's hit show about saucy vampires. If you watch the show, you saw quite a bit more of John than you might have wished to in 2009, as the town's participation in a massive (season-long) orgy required him to simulate doing things that are illegal in 27 states, and the Virgin Islands. John signed a nudity waiver, at the producer's behest, and it has been duly framed and now hangs in his guest bathroom.

Mr. Billingsley will be available all weekend for photo ops and autographs.






Bonita Friedericy
can currently be seen in the television series Chuck as NSA Director General Diane Beckman. She has also appeared in several films and television shows most notably Star Trek: Enterprise, The Nine, The West Wing, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and The Starter Wife.

Ms. Friedericy will be available all weekend for photo ops and autographs. 







Martin Klebba
has acted in various productions, most notably Pirates of the Caribbean as "Marty", one of Captain Jack Sparrow's Black Pearl crew, in all three of the Pirates films. He is also well known as "Randall Winston" in the television series Scrubs. Martin has made several guest appearances on television including Pair of Kings, a Disney TV series, as well as the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episode "The Chick Chop Flick Shop" as "Dickie Jones", and in the CSI: NY episode "Uncertainty Rules" as "Calvin Moore." He also played "Todd Moore" in the Bones episode "Dwarf in the Dirt" and starred as "Hank Dingo" in the Comedy Central made-for-TV movie Knee High P.I. He has numerous stunt credits as well including Hancock, Zombieland, Bedtime Stories, Evan Almighty, Meet the Spartans, Epic Movie, and Van Helsing.

Mr. Klebba will be available all weekend for photo ops and autographs.




Lee Arenberg
is best known for his role as Pintel, one of Captain Barbossa's crew of miscreants, in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series. He is also one of just a handful of actors that have guest starred on all the Star Trek spin-offs Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, and Star Trek: Enterprise. With over 100 film and Television credits, Lee had recurring rolls on Seinfeld, Arli$$ and the short lived TV series Action. Lee has also appeared in Friends, Walker, Texas Ranger, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and Scrubs just to name a few. Most frequently referred to as a character actor, Arenberg maintains a flourishing acting career - almost 20 years spanning television, stage and film.

Mr. Arenberg will be available all weekend for photo ops and autographs.
