Roz Doyle

What, if any, is the connection between Roz Doyle, the producer of the sitcom Wings and Roz Doyle, the character name of the producer on Frasier?

The producer Roz Doyle died of breast cancer in 1991, and the producers of Frasier, who had worked with her on Wings, named Frasier’s radio producer after her as a tribute.

The odd coincidence is that Roz Doyle’s mother is supposed to be the attorney general of Wisconsin. At the time, Wisconsin’s attorney general was Jim Doyle. He’s now the governor.
