Majel Barrett-Roddenberry (first name pronounced /ˈmeɪdʒəl/; born Majel Leigh Hudec; February 23, 1932 – December 18, 2008) was an American actress and producer. She is best known for her role as Nurse Christine Chapel in the original Star Trek series, Lwaxana Troi on Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and for being the voice of most onboard computer interfaces throughout the series. She was also the wife of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry.
As the wife of Roddenberry and given her ongoing relationship with Star Trek—participating in some way in every series during her lifetime—she was sometimes referred to as "the First Lady of Star Trek". She and Gene Roddenberry were married in Japan on August 6, 1969, after the cancellation of the original Star Trek series. They had one son together, Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry, Jr., born in 1974.
Majel began taking acting classes as a child. She attended Shaker Heights High School, graduating in 1950 before going on to the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, then had some stage roles and came to Hollywood. Her father, William Hudec, was a Cleveland police officer. He was killed in the line of duty in 1955 while Majel was touring with an off-Broadway road company. She was briefly seen in Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? (1957) in an ad parody at the beginning of the film, and had roles in a few movies including Love in a Goldfish Bowl (1961), Sylvia (1965), A Guide for the Married Man (1967) and Track of Thunder (1967). She worked at the Desilu Studios on several TV shows, including Bonanza, The Untouchables, The Lucy Show, and The Lieutenant (produced by Gene Roddenberry). She received training in comedy from Lucille Ball. In 1960, she played Gwen Rutherford on Leave It to Beaver.
Majel Barrett-Roddenberry is the only actor to participate in all six Star Trek TV series. She played Number One, Nurse Christine Chapel, Lwaxana Troi, the voice of the federation computer, the narrator and many more. This video is a tribute to that achievement.

William Shatner talks about his impressions and memories of Majel Roddenberry on the set of Star Trek The Original Series.
s1ep7 Lucy Is a Kangaroo for a Day The Lucy Show is an American situation comedy that aired on CBS from 1962 until 1968. It was Lucille Ball's follow-up to I Love Lucy. A significant change in cast and premise for the 1965-66 season divides the program into two distinct eras; aside from Ball, only Gale Gordon, who joined the program for its second season, remained. For the first three seasons, Vivian Vance was the costar. The earliest scripts were entitled The Lucille Ball Show, but all episodes aired with the title The Lucy Show.

Majel Barrett-Roddenberry and I met at the Los Angeles Star Trek Convention on 6/3/89. An engaging and entertaining lady, she was enjoying some drinks with us fans at the bar. So, I soon left the party to attend Gene Roddenberry's lecture in the main ballroom. I'd not seen him in person since his college-tours during the early 1970's. Those were lean years for Gene, his tv-pilots had never succeeded and his Star Trek series had been reduced to a saturday-morning cartoon program (before Star Trek-The Motion Picture and The Next Generation). Wanted to share this brief edit of her surprise-appearance during Gene's question-and-answer session. Many family, friends and fans will miss you, Majel.
One of the last episodes of the series, with guest stars Frank Cady ("Petticoat Junction"/"Green Acres") and Majel Barrett ("Star Trek").

No, not Majel Barrett, but being able to simply speak commands into the air and have a computer either retrieve data or execute functions has always been a lofty goal. With tech like Siri, Cortana, and Google Now, it seemed like we were always on the cusp, but the systems were locked down with very limited expansion abilities. But now there’s Alexa from Amazon and that connection to your enterprise systems is at your command. But what does it mean to have a voice UI? What are the pitfalls that come with the benefits? What are the design and testing considerations when developing conversations with your data? We will explore those topics as well as what it takes to build Amazon Skills and how effective it is for business purposes. Copyright © 2016 Stir Trek Conference, Inc. All rights re...

With unfortunate passing of Leonard Nimoy, I've decided to dedicate the series to him and all the other actors and actresses of Star Trek that have passed on. That includes James Doohan, DeForest Kelly, Majel Barrett, and, of course, Gene Roddenberry. As for this episode? I decide to try and attack the Borg. Just uttering those words makes this seem like a bad idea...
