History

Rozalinda "Roz" Doyle was born in Blumer, Wisconsin on May 5th 1964. Her mother is Joanna Doyle, the Attorney General for the state. She also has a sister, Denise. As a child Roz had a few things wrong with her, such as a lazy eye and ears that stuck out too much, but she had surgery on her ears in 1973. Roz went to college, where she posed naked for her art instructor (well, she did need the credits!) and had a boyfriend who left her to go university. In 1981 her parents divorced but she remained close to both of them.

Roz moved to Seattle and in 1983 started working at KACL. She became the first female producer at KACL in 1985. Over the next few years Roz had a vast number of relationships, most of which didn't last that long (she did have a couple of longer relationships between 1988 and 1991.

In May 1993 she started producing the Dr Frasier Crane Show, where she met Frasier Crane and wasn't impressed with him at first! She soon became friends with him and has been a big help to him and the show over the years. In 1994 she helped the show win its first of many SeaBees.

Roz's dating changed forever in 1997 when she met and slept with Rick, a waiter at Cafe Nervosa - which left her pregnant, Roz decided to keep the baby and as she was not in love with Rick, she decided to raise the baby on her own. Alice May Doyle was born in 1998. Later that year Roz was out of work for a while (thanks to Frasier!) but she eventually got her job back. In 2001 she produced a few documentaries for KACL, including one on space which John Glenn narrated for her. Later that year she met and dated Roger, but was devastated when he dumped her. She ended up drunkenly sleeping with Frasier but they have remained friends afterwards. Her father remarried in 2003, causing Roz to fear she wouldn't be as close to him, and this made her freak out over Frasier's relationship with Julia and quitting KACL. She and Frasier are now friends again and she is once again back at KACL, where she became station manager in 2004.

Personality

Roz is a very outgoing person who likes company - especially of the male kind. She has numerous boyfriends over the years but is still looking for a man she could settle down with. Roz is looking for him more now than in earlier years when she was just having a good time. She doesn't like it when people (ie Frasier and Niles) make fun of her love life. Roz didn't like Niles that much but she can put up with him and is good friends with the rest of the Crane family. She was to be a bridesmaid at Daphne's wedding to Donny and was there for her wedding to Niles.

Roz has always wanted to work on the radio and her dream was to host her own show. She nearly had an opportunity to do this but thanks to Bebe Glazer she didn't get it. She can also be quite greedy at times, such as at the SeaBee awards when she was determined to win an award, and in the way she chose Bebe as her agent after Bebe had lost her the radio host job (Bebe offered her a large sum of money).

Roz has season tickets for the Seattle Sonics, though this may be to pick up guys. She has also played poker with Martin and his friends and was treated as one of the guys - she even had to pick a woman to fancy!!! ("Well, if I really had to choose....."). She does have a tattoo somewhere (on her butt, I think). She has also said she can sense when a man has just had sex.

Besides men, Roz also likes shopping and talking to her mother Joanna. She is a good mum to her daughter Alice, whom she loves dearly, and their dog Ariel.

Roz Doyle is played by Peri Gilpin. She first appeared in Ep 1 "The Good Son".
