Where is he now? It was great seeing him in "Wrath of Khan," but what has he done since then. That movie was made 19 years ago. (Has it been THAT long???!!!)
According to the Internet movie database after doing Wrath of Kahn John Winston did not appear in anything until 1990 when he played in a series called Lucky Chances.
Who is John Winston?
He is the guy who played Transporter Chief Kyle, who appeared in the following episodes: Tomorrow is Yesterday, Space Seed, The City On The Edge Of Forever, Catspaw, Who Mourns for Adonais, The Doomsday Machine, Wolf in the Fold, The Apple, Mirror Mirror, The Immunity Syndrome and The Lights of Zetar. He was also in The Wrath Of Khan.
He's British too!
Reminds me of another John Winston who was around for a while... musician, I think he was... but that's too off-topic for today.
Sorry kiddos, Until I get some official proof...John Winston played KOWEL in "The Immunity Syndrome"
How about The Official Star Trek Website Synopsis of The Immunity Syndrome?
Under Guest Cast:
"John Winston as Lt. Kyle".
Official enough for you, John?
Whatever!
Just saw John Winston in The Man from UNCLE episode 'The King of Diamonds Affair', playing UNCLE Agent 14. Solo and Illya take him with them when they go to investigate a diamond smuggling operation running out of a bakery. When they are knocked out, its up to our brave Lt Kyle to storm the building and single-handedly save the day! And does he?
No. He goes in, gets some flour thrown in his face and then gets strangled to death with a rolling pin.
Poor guy.
Mr. Winston makes his living as a barber these days.

He was in the pilot of the Time Tunnel, playing a crewman on the Titanic.
