Fleet Admiral Cartwright was a Starfleet flag officer active in the late 23rd century. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Kenneth Lemuel Moses Cartwright graduated from Starfleet Academy as salutatorian in 2251 and was posted to USS Enterprise during a period in which the Enterprise was transitioning between Captains Robert April and Christopher Pike. (Star Trek: Shadowstar Station)
- The name Kenneth Lemuel Moses is specific to Star Trek: Shadowstar Station and derived from two different RPG sources and Orion Press fanzines (for Moses); Cartwright does not have a canon first name. In the non-canon novel Forged in Fire his given name is Lance, possibly in homage to the real-life mixed martial-arts fighter.
In the late 2280s, Cartwright was said to be chief of Starfleet operations as well as liaison to the Daystrom Institute. (Star Trek: Excelsior novel Forged in Fire)
Cartwright's long career in Starfleet would end in disgrace when he arrested at Khitomer for his involvement in the assassination of Klingon Chancellor Gorkon and the attempted assassination of the Federation President in 2293. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
