In addition to commercials, Orr has narrated children's stories, provided voices for several dolls, and recorded numerous audiobooks. She was the voice of "Snuggles the Bear" for 15 years and narrated Aliki Brandenberg's "Mummies Made in Egypt" for the PBS series "Reading Rainbow" and participated in a special redubbing of an episode of "Late Night with David Letterman." Orr's work as a voice actress included dubbing foreign films (particularly anime films) and series into English.

Following the release of the compilation film "Speed Racer: The Movie," together with fellow voice actor on the show, Peter Fernandez (the voice of Speed Racer and Racer X), she went on Children's Safety Network-sponsored tours around the country with the Mach 5 car in order to promote their campaign for children's safety.
