Early lifeEdit

In 2229, she met the Vulcan Ambassador, Sarek, and the two were soon married. Following the marriage, Amanda and Sarek set up home in the city of ShiKahr on Vulcan, and in 2230 their son, Spock, was born, with the genetic assistance of pioneering team Sorel and Daniel Corrigan. They were later instrumental in curing Amanda of a deadly disease. (TOS novels: Ishmael, Demons, Spock's World, The Vulcan Academy Murders, The IDIC Epidemic)

Amanda had a sister named Doris, and two nephews, Jimmy and Lester. (TOS novel: Planet of Judgment)

She was a descendant of the 19th and 20th century Scottish author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, best known as the creator of Sherlock Holmes. (TOS movie: The Undiscovered Country)

This is an assumption based on Spock's claim that an ancestor was responsible for the quote, "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

DeathEdit

Amanda died sometime prior to 2366, at which time Sarek had been remarried, to Perrin. (TNG episode: "Sarek")

There have been two contradictory accounts of her death, in novels:

SarekEdit

Amanda died in 2293 of Reyerson's Disease whilst Sarek was unwillingly forced to continue his Ambassadorial duties. (TOS novel: Sarek)

CrucibleEdit

In 2311, the Primrose Gallery in Paris hosted an exhibition of artworks by Amanda Grayson. She traveled to Earth for the show; however, on her return to Vulcan, the shuttle she was traveling on suffered a total systems failure and exploded. (TOS novel: Crucible: The Fire and the Rose)

Alternate timelinesEdit

In an alternate timeline in which John Frederick Paxton destroyed Starfleet Command and ended the talks for the Coalition of Planets in 2155, Grayson held a Ph.D. in history, and served as history department chair at Berkeley in 2264. That year, she invited Lady T'Pol of Vulcan to lecture at the university. (TOS - Myriad Universes novel: A Less Perfect Union)

In another alternate timeline, Grayson was killed in a shuttlecraft accident at Lunaport on her way back to Earth in 2237. She and her husband Sarek had separated shortly beforehand, following the death of their seven-year-old son Spock during the Kahs-wan ritual on the 20th day of Tasmeen in the Vulcan year of 8877 (the Earth year 2237). Sarek did not remarry after her death. (TAS episode: "Yesteryear", Star Trek: Myriad Universes novel: The Chimes at Midnight)

AppendicesEdit

BackgroundEdit

Amanda appears in the 2009 film Star Trek. This is the first onscreen, live-action appearance of her last name, Grayson (established in TAS episode: "Yesteryear"). Spock tells her that he is considering undergoing kolinahr; however, he is conflicted about this, reassuring his mother that a decision to live free of emotion does not mean he thinks any less of her. Amanda says that whatever Spock decides to do, he will always have a proud mother. (Earlier scenes with a younger Amanda and Sarek, and infant Spock, were cut from the film but still seen in the previews.)
