Voice Actress - Eartha Kitt

Eartha Mae Kitt (January 17, 1927 – December 25, 2008) was an American actress, singer and cabaret star. She was perhaps best known for her highly distinctive singing style and her 1953 hit Christmas song "Santa Baby". She took over the role of Catwoman for the third season of the 1960s Batman television series, replacing Julie Newmar, who was unavailable for the final season. 
After her death, she won a Daytime Emmy Award in the category of Oustanding Performer in an Animated Program for voicing the character of Cool Cat in Nickelodeon's The Wonder Pets. She previously won in the same category twice before for her role as Yzma in The Emperor's New School.
