Dear god, Jonathan Frakes is 72.
HA.
Solid meme.
In the second panel, her head looks like a bad photoshop job.
Who is that lady? Name of the actress?
I found it - using reverse image search and getting pointed back to Ensign Kellogg -> https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Kellogg and actress Cameron https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Cameron

I’m sorry; no. Her name is Cameron. She was a frequent stand-in on TNG and she’s best known (I guess) for co-starring in the cult classic Samurai Cop. Her given name on the show was Ensign Kellogg and she appeared in 43 episodes and the first two films.
Patricia Tallman was in a few episodes of TNG, but OP’s pic is from “Data’s Day,” in which she did not appear. One of the three episodes she did appear in was “Power Play,” and here’s a screenshot of her in that. (This was the only episode in which she appeared as a crewmember. In all of her other appearances, she was an alien of some sort.)
wait she was in samurai cop? I love that one.
Samurai Cop is best watched in the form of RiffTrax

well - I only just found out about her - even though I believe I have seen (excerpts of) Samurai Cop. I’ll have to re-watch.
Now I wonder how many other unknown regulars there were throughout any of the series. I have a few favorites of ones that were in a few episodes, like some of the helmsmen, but her list is so long.
Edit: I ran across your other link that opened that rabbit hole. Now to compare who lasted the longest.

Of the unknown regulars? Didn’t get that :)

I love that half the characters she played are hand doubles. lol
Even through all those episodes of TNG and up to First Contact she was still Ensign Kellogg. Aren’t you guaranteed a promotion from from Ensign after like 3-4 years unless you’re a particularly terrible officer?
Well I am not a Trekkie, I wouldn’t know - I just watched various bits of Star Trek a lot over the years because there was always something on - TOS, TNG, DS9 or Voyager in the 90s…
Either way, with this look she could have gotten any promotion from me. And basically anything I have / could give / beg, steal or borrow.
Looks like Patricia Tallman, maybe? Lyta from Babylon 5.
While there are striking similarities, and you are probably correct, sadly I was unable to find any pictures of this scene and/or of Patricia Tallman showing this seductive smile with a touch of Audrey-Hepburn elegance. Also, the only Star Trek Episode I could find on memory-alpha fandom with Patricia Tallman as a security officer, was one where she had no bangs but a rather tously haircut: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Unnamed_USS_Enterprise_(NCC-1701-D)_personnel#Security_command_001
Patricia Tallman
How have I seen so much trek and never noticed Lyta!?! She plays a bunch of characters if you look at her memory alpha page and I don’t think I ever once noticed her.
Na, I just skipped through that episode (Power Play) and there is no such scene, also Patricia Tallman’s two scenes are really short and only fight scenes.
So either there’s another episode that I couldn’t find mentioned where she plays a yellow-shirt, or it’s not the same actress after all maybe?
Wasn’t she also Gates McFadden’s body or stunt double?
I love that your question sparked the most discussion in this thread
if by discussion, you mean mostly me talking to myself, then… yes :D
