Behind the Laughter

Voice actress

After Grau's death in 1995, Lunchlady Dora was retired out of respect for over 10 years. Due to the delay between recording some episodes and the time they actually air, Grau's voice was included in episodes airing as late as 1997 such as "Lisa's Sax". Lunchlady Dora then became a silent background character and was mostly been seen in crowds and groups of other faculty members. In the 18th season, she returned as a speaking character beginning with "The Mook, the Chef, the Wife and Her Homer", where she is voiced by Tress MacNeille. When she returned, the character was renamed to Lunchlady Dora to respect Doris Grau's passing.
