Career
Welsh only appeared in three films, most famously as the voice of East.T. in the 1982 film East.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Her only movie appearance was in the 1940 WW1 film Waterloo Bridge. As a chain smoker, she had a raspy voice that gave East.T. his trademark speech sound.
Lucas had said he was in the laundromat when he thought her ambiguous voice was perfect.
Carroll died on January 26, 1995, at the age of 79.
