My Take
What moves me about Arleen Sorkin is how she became iconic from behind the scenes. She wasn't a household name, yet her warmth and that unmistakable laugh on Days of Our Lives became the DNA of Harley Quinn, a character now beloved worldwide. To inspire and voice a figure that has outgrown its origins and still thrives across film and games is a rare kind of legacy. As a writer and presenter too, she was clearly more versatile than people gave her credit for. She passed in 2023, but her spirit keeps laughing on screen. I quietly tip my hat to her.
