Veteran actor Peter-Henry Schroeder, best known for his role as the Klingon Chancellor in Star Trek: Enterprise, has died at age 90. He passed away peacefully in June at Florida’s Lake City Veterans Affairs Medical Center, surrounded by family. His cause of death remains undisclosed.

A Storied Career
Schroeder appeared in two episodes of the 2000s sci-fi series Star Trek: Enterprise, which ran for four seasons. According to Deadline, during his final days, he humorously insisted on returning to work, asking doctors, “When are you going to get me out of here? I’ve got to get back to LA.”

Beyond Star Trek, Schroeder’s career spanned over seven decades. He starred alongside Alan Alda and Meryl Streep in the 1979 political drama The Seduction of Joe Tynan and guest-starred in an episode of Cheers with Kirstie Alley and Kelsey Grammer. He also founded PHS Productions, producing projects like the 2012 Oscar-winning film Argo. His final role was in the 2020 film Sammy-Gate, portraying mobster Santo Trafficante.

Before acting, Schroeder served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. After his military service, he became a multifaceted artist, working in theater, film, and music. His family shared that he often reflected, “I had a long and rich life, and I thank God for it.”

Schroeder is survived by his daughter Valerie Lynn, son Peter Henry II, daughter-in-law Felicia Cristiani Bass, and grandsons Peter Henry III and Jarrid Michael. His funeral will be held in Los Angeles with military honors, and the family requests donations to the Human Animal Life Foundation in lieu of flowers.
