TV and movies
Playing opposite Jerry Stiller (1927–2020) as her “Seinfeld” husband, Harris created a screechy, overbearing mother who raised a neurotic son in George. Harris also had notable roles as a voice actress, including Mrs. Potato Head in the “Toy Story” series and Mama Lipsky on “Kim Possible.” Her movies include “Stand and Deliver” (1988), “My Giant” (1998), and “CBGB” (2013). On TV, she made appearances on dozens of shows, including “Law & Order,” “Star Trek: Voyager,” ”ER,” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”
Commercials
Early in Harris’ acting career, she got work in commercials – her commercial spots in the 1980s had her singing the Handi-Wrap jingle, admitting to her late mother that she used SOS Pads instead of Brillo, and admiring a Cabbage Patch Kid’s fur coat. Later in life, she promoted Iams pet food.
