I realize nobody besides maybe Jeff and a few lurkers know who this is, but I’m saddened by this news:
Majel Barrett Roddenberry, the most ubiquitous actor in Star Trek, died today at age 76. The wife of Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, she also provided the computer voices on every version of Trek. And she played three pivotal characters: Number One in the pilot, Nurse Chapel in the original series, and Lwaxana Troi in TNG and DS9.
She also will provide the computer voices for the new Star Trek movie.
