In the morning, Malissa Longo had posted on Facebook that her husband Aron Eisenberg was in critical condition in the hospital. On Saturday evening, the sad news came: "I have to announce in full sadness that my great love and my best friend, Aron Eisenberg, has died today," she posted, as well as numerous photos of the couple, who had only married in December last year.
Born in Los Angeles in 1969, Eisenberg became known as Ferengi Nog in the "Star Trek" spin-off Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in the 1990s. Overall, he had played in 47 of the 176 episodes. At that time Eisenberg had other television and film roles in which his face, unlike the role of Nog, was not hidden behind a mask.
The 1.52 meter actor and film producer suffered from his youth from a growth disorder, which was treated with a kidney transplant at the age of 17 years. In 2015 he received another transplant. However, his wife did not name a cause of death.
