Actress/stuntwoman Patricia Tallman, born September 4, 1957 in Pontiac, Illinois, is beloved by many sci-fi fans as the rogue telepath Lyta Alexander on the TV series Babylon 5. I didn't realize this until reading her bio on imdb.com, that she was Laura Dern's stunt double in Jurassic Park. According to the web-site, you can see her face after Dern's character falls off the T-Rex skeleton and the camera closes in on her face for a second. I remember the scene and thought it was Laura Dern all the time!
I was upset when Andrea Thompson (Talia Winters) left Babylon 5 and held a grudge against Lyta Alexander as being responsible for her leaving, but got to appreciate her.
