Iconic TV role: Peri Gilpin

Peri Gilpin, born in Waco, Texas, as Peri Kay Oldham, studied acting, did live theater, and worked in TV commercials before landing her celebrity-producing role as Roz Doyle on the comedy series "Frasier."

Doyle was Frasier's radio producer, a street-wise, good looking but not raving beautiful, highly competent single gal always on the lookout for Mr. Right but usually finding only Mr. Right Now.

"Frasier," one of the best TV comic sitcoms of them all, ran from 1993 to 2004.

Gilpin has also appeared on other TV shows, including "Matlock," "Wings," "Designing Women," "Cheers," The Rosie O'Donnell Show," and "King of the Hill." She and her fellow "Frasier" cast member Jane Leeves have their own production company as well.
