Description

The Magic Behind the Voices is a fascinating package of biographies; anecdotes; credit listings; and photographs of the actors who have created the unmistakable voices for some of the most popular and enduring animated characters of all time.Drawn from dozens of personal interviews; the book features a unique look at thirty-nine of the hidden artists of show business. Often as amusing as the characters they portray; voice actors are charming; resilient people-many from humble beginnings-who have led colorful lives in pursuit of success. Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hills Mike Judge was an engineer for a weapons contractor turned self-taught animator and voice actor. Nancy Cartwright (the voice of Bart Simpson) was a small town Ohio girl who became the star proteacute;geacute; of Daws Butler-most famous for Yogi Bear; Huckleberry Hound; and Quick Draw McGraw. Mickey Mouse (Wayne Allwine) and Minnie Mouse (Russi Taylor) are a real-life husband-and-wife team. Spanning many studios and production companies; this book captures the spirit of fun that bubbles from those who create the voices of favorite animated characters. In the earliest days of cartoons; voice actors were seldom credited for their work. A little more than a decade ago; even the Screen Actors Guild did not consider voice actors to be real actors; and the only voice actor known to the general public was Mel Blanc. Now; Oscar-winning celebrities clamor to guest star on animated television shows and features. Despite the crushing turnouts at signings for shows such as Animaniacs; The Simpsons; and SpongeBob Squarepants; most voice actors continue to work in relative anonymity. The Magic Behind the Voices features personal interviews and concise biographical details; parting the curtain to reveal creators of many of the most beloved cartoon voices.
