- Said in an interview that being in costume for the Borg Queen was "painful". She was in hair and make up for five hours to transform her into the Borg Queen and then would film for sometimes 18 hours a day, with an additional hour and a half just to get out of costume. She lost more than five pounds while filming.
- Got the role of the "Borg Queen" on Star Trek: Voyager (1995) only because Alice Krige (who played the role in the movie Star Trek: First Contact (1996)) refused to reprise her role. For the final episode, Susanna Thompson was not available (because of shooting Once and Again (1999)) so Alice Krige played the Borg Queen in the final episode.
- She is skilled in Aikido and stage combat.
- She mainly grew up in San Diego, the third of seven children of Norman Thompson, a United States of America Navy Chief-Petty-Officer, and wife Nina, a homemaker.
- After high school she was a shoe salesperson for Sears and has worked as a hostess in a restaurant.
- [Talking about her favorite scene in Dragonfly (2002)]: "My favorite scene was cut from the movie, but it's this beautiful stethoscope scene, where Joe and Emily are both lying in bed listening to the baby's heartbeat. It's just beautifully sensual in a beautifully full pregnant state, aesthetically feminine and loving, with two people totally connected. I also loved the scene when he's trying to convince her not to go; it established the fiery part of who she is, so committed to living this life that she's chosen".
