Former 'Seinfeld' and 'Toy Story' actress Estelle Harris has died. She was 93.
— Estelle Harris, who hollered her way into TV history as George Costanza's short-fused mother on"Seinfeld" and voiced Mrs. Potato Head in the"Toy Story" franchise, has died. She was 93.
The career-defining role came after decades on stage and screen. Born April 22, 1928, in New York City, Harris grew up in the city and later in the Pittsburgh suburb of Tarentum, Pennsylvania, where her father owned a candy store. She started tapping her comedic talents in high school productions where she realized she"could make the audience get hysterical," as she told People magazine in 1995.
Her"Seinfeld" debut came in one of the show's most celebrated episodes: the Emmy Award-winning 1992"The Contest," in which the four central characters challenge each other to refrain from doing what is artfully described only as"that."
