Joshua Andrew Koenig (/ˈkeɪnɪɡ/; (August 17, 1968 – approximately February 25, 2010), was an American character actor, film director, editor, writer, and human rights activist.
Andrew Koenig was born August 17, 1968, the son of Star Trek actor Walter Koenig and Judy Levitt.
Writer Harlan Ellison spoke of the young Koenig – by his given first name of Josh – as being the inspiration for his story Jeffty Is Five.
The story went on to win the 1977 Nebula Award and the 1978 Hugo Award for Best Short Story.
From 1985 to 1989, Koenig played a recurring role as Richard "Boner" Stabone, best friend to Kirk Cameron's character Mike Seaver in the first four seasons of the ABC sitcom Growing Pains. During the same period, he guest starred on episodes of the sitcoms My Sister Sam and My Two Dads as well as the drama 21 Jump Street. In the early 1990s he provided a voice for the animated series G.I. Joe as Ambush and Night Creeper Leader, and had a minor role as Tumak in the 1993 Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Sanctuary".
