Guinan – Whoopi Goldberg
Oh yeah, Whoopi Goldberg portrayed Guinan, an El-Aurian which is a race of “listeners” who were scattered by the Borg (a powerful, cyborg-like race). Since the show, she’s gone on to win an Emmy Award, a Grammy Award, an Oscar, and a Tony Award. She was also the second black woman in the history of the Academy Awards to win an acting Oscar. Currently, you can catch her on the talk show The View.
