April Tatro

April Tatro is a former contortionist and actress who appeared in the role of Isis in her Human form in the second season episode . 
She was uncredited for this appearance — because she had no dialogue — and filmed her scene on Friday at Paramount Stage 5. 
In fan circles it was long speculated that the briefly seen Human form of the cat Isis was portrayed by actress , and this had been repeated so often that many articles and websites treated it as fact. However, Vetri herself confirmed that she was not in the episode: "I was never in an episode of STAR TREK. I know that people think I was […] I am not sure who she was. Look close enough and you can see that she has blue eyes and I, of course, have brown." (Little Shoppe of Horrors #41, p. 71)
On 12 March 2019 (citing a production call sheet for extras dated ), Larry Nemecek revealed on his podcast The Trek Files that the Human form of Isis was portrayed by actress, dancer, and contortionist April Tatro.
