Canadian performer and "The Simpsons" voice actress Béatrice Picard has died at 96, her family confirmed.

The Montréal native died on Dec. 9 after a 75-year acting career spanning television and theater, according to the Théâtre Duceppe. Funeral details have not been shared.

Though her stage presence captivated audiences for decades, she is also widely known for her voice as Marge Simpson on the Quebec version of "The Simpsons."

She provided a French-Canadian dub of the iconic character's lines for 33 seasons, joining an elite circle of talent that has given voice to the staple TV character initially and currently portrayed by Julie Kavner.

"Bubbling with enthusiasm, lively, true, feminist of the early hours and molded by a relentless passion, she was able to captivate the people of Quebec with her talent and personality," Théâtre Duceppe wrote on Facebook.

Graduating from the National Theatre School of Canada in Montréal, Picard pursued a multifaceted career, acting in more than 200 stage productions and over 60 TV dramas. She also occasionally appeared on the big screen with roles in films like the comedy "My Aunt Aline" and the Oscar-nominated short film "Marguerite."

She served as an officer for the National Order of Quebec and a member of the Order of Canada. In 2018, she published an autobiography titled "With Age, We Can Say Everything."

"Too often we deprive ourselves of small joys because we fear the future or the consequences and end up with the regret of broken dreams. That time was over for me. My philosophy was inspired by Felix Leclerc's song: every day I gather a little happiness," she wrote in her book.
