Like Captain James T. Kirk, by birth (5)

I believe the answer is:

iowan

(Other definitions for iowan that I've seen before include "American" , "From a US state, capital Des Moines" , "From one US state" , "Someone from the Midwest - a wino? (anag)" , "Midwesterner" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
