Majel Barrett played both characters in TOS. She also voiced the computer in TNG, DS9, and Voyager.

Also Lwaxana Troi. That part's not relevant to the meme, though.

Ohhhh! I knew she was Nurse Chapel, the computer, and Lwaxana, but not that she was also Number One. Thanks!

I'm a major Majel fan (say that 10 times fast!), And it wasn't until a year or so ago that I realized that Majel played Number One. Blew my mind. Something about her in that episode is just different. Honestly, the woman was a helluvan actor. She threw herself into the roles she took, even when the writing didn't do her justice.
