My Take
For me Pat Carroll will forever be the voice of Ursula, one of the most deliciously menacing villains Disney ever animated. But that single role undersells a career of staggering range, from her 1957 Emmy win to decades of television, stage, and comedy. A Shreveport native who worked the first rank for generations, she had the rare gift of being both hilarious and genuinely frightening. She passed in 2022 at 95, yet a voice like hers never really leaves us. I deeply admire performers who make villainy magnetic, and Carroll did it with a relish that still echoes today.
