Last Thursday, December 18th, 2008, Majel Barrett Roddenberry died at the age of 76.
Roddenberry played the voice of the ship’s computer in pretty much every instance of its use. You’ll notice that the voice remained unchanged from The Original Series all the way to the later series like Deep Space 9 and Voyager. In fact, her work is not done. Shortly before her death, Majel Barrett Roddenberry finished the voiceover work for the new Star Trek movie, which will open next year.
Personally I will always remember her first as Counselor Troi’s mother in TNG, since that was the first role I saw her play. What a great character! You’ll be missed Majel.
Here is UserFriendly.Org’s tribute to the first lady of Star Trek:
