'''Glenn Morshower''' (born [[April 24]], 1959) is an American actor. Often cast in roles playing military officers or figures of authority, Morshower is perhaps best known for his role as Aaron Pierce on television series ''24''.  He has also played several guest characters in multiple incarnations of ''Star Trek''. Though a Dallas native, the heavy Texan accent he uses for the many of his roles is not actually his normal speaking voice.
