Leah Brahms was originally intended to be the great-great-granddaughter of Dr. Richard Daystrom, a minor character from the TOS episode "The Ultimate Computer", but producers realized that they would've had to have hired a black actress for the role. Somehow it never occured to anyone that Leah could've been a light-skinned black woman, or that the Daystrom family could've become mixed-race over the years (given how race mixing would be a non-issue at that point).
