My Take
For me, Peri Gilpin will always be Roz Doyle, the sharp, knowing radio producer who gave Frasier its grounding wit. That is no small legacy. Born Peri Kay Oldham in Waco, Texas, and trained at the University of Texas at Austin, she has the craft to slip between sitcom timing, dramatic work on Make It or Break It, and voice acting with ease. I have a particular fondness for performers like her who elevate a story without demanding the spotlight, the ones who make the leads look better. A reliable, intelligent character actor is one of television's most underrated assets, and she is among the best.
