The woman of a thousand voices, actress Lucille Bliss, was the voice of cartoon character Crusader Rabbit during television’s infancy, and decades later the voice of The Smurfs’ lovable Smurfette. She died last week of natural causes in an assisted living center in Costa Mesa, California. She was 96.  Bliss also voiced stepsister Anastasia in the 1950 Disney movie Cinderella and Elroy in the classic ’60s TV series The Jetsons. She worked constantly, inhabiting many other animated characters, from the prehistoric Flintstones to interplanetary beings in Star Wars video games. And she worked up until a month before she died. “Actors from her generation who came up in live radio, you’d do one or two takes with Lucille and she’d just nail it,” said David Scheve, TDA Animation owner who worked with the actress. “She could do three or four characters in one scene and you’d never know they were all her. She was terrific.” (via LATimes)
