June Foray (bornJune Lucille Forer; September 18, 1917 – July 26, 2017) was an Americanvoice actress andradio personality, best known as the voice of suchanimated characters asRocky the Flying Squirrel,Natasha Fatale,Nell Fenwick,Lucifer from Disney'sCinderella,Cindy Lou Who,Jokey Smurf,Granny from theWarner Bros. cartoons directed byFriz Freleng, Grammi Gummi fromDisney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears series, andMagica De Spell, among many others.
Her career encompassed radio, theatrical shorts, feature films, television, records (particularly withStan Freberg), video games, talking toys, and other media. Foray was also one of the early members ofASIFA-Hollywood, the society devoted to promoting and encouraging animation. She is credited with the establishment of theAnnie Awards, as well as being instrumental in the creation of theAcademy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2001. She has a star on theHollywood Walk of Fame honoring her voice work in television.[3]
Chuck Jones was quoted as saying: "June Foray is not the femaleMel Blanc. Mel Blanc was the male June Foray."[4]
June Lucille Forer was born on September 18, 1917,[5] inSpringfield, Massachusetts, one of three children of Ida (Robinson) and Morris Forer. Her mother was ofLithuanian Jewish andFrench Canadian ancestry, and her father was a Jewish emigrant fromOdessa,Russian Empire.[6] The family resided at75 Orange Street, Forest Park.[7] As a small child, Foray first wanted to be a dancer, so her mother sent her to local classes, but she had to drop out due to a case ofpneumonia.[8] Her voice was first broadcast in a local radio drama when she was 12 years old;[9] by age 15, she was doing regular radio voice work.[3]
Two years later, after graduating fromClassical High School, she moved with her parents and siblings to live inLos Angeles, near Ida's brother, after Morris Forer, an engineer, fell on hard financial times.[7]
After entering radio through theWBZA Players, Foray starred in her own radio seriesLady Make Believe in the late 1930s.[10] She soon became a popular voice actress, with regular appearances on coast-to-coast network shows includingLux Radio Theatre andThe Jimmy Durante Show.[7]
In the 1940s, Foray also began film work, including a few roles in live action movies, but mostly did voice over work for animated cartoons and radio programs and occasionally dubbing films and television.[11] On radio, Foray did the voices of Midnight the Cat and Old Grandie the Piano onThe Buster Brown Program, which starredSmilin' Ed McConnell, from 1944 to 1952. She later did voices on theMutual Broadcasting System programSmile Time forSteve Allen.[9] Her work in radio ultimately led her to recording for a number ofchildren's albums forCapitol Records.[9]
ForWalt Disney, Foray voiced Lucifer the Cat in the feature filmCinderella, Lambert's mother inLambert the Sheepish Lion, a mermaid inPeter Pan andWitch Hazel in the Donald Duck shortTrick or Treat. Decades later, Foray was the voice of Grandmother Fa in the 1998 animated Disney filmMulan. She also did a variety of voices inWalter Lantz Productions'Woody Woodpecker cartoons, including Woody's nephew and niece, Knothead and Splinter. Impressed by her performance as Witch Hazel, in 1954Chuck Jones invited her over toWarner Brothers Cartoons.[9] ForWarner Brothers, she wasGranny (whom she had played on vinyl records starting in 1950, before officially voicing her inRed Riding Hoodwinked, released in 1955, taking over forBea Benaderet), owner ofTweety andSylvester, and a series of witches, includingLooney Tunes' ownWitch Hazel, with Jones as director. Like most of Warner Brothers' voice actors at the time (with the exception ofMel Blanc), Foray was not credited for her roles in these cartoons.[9] She played Bubbles onThe Super 6 andCindy Lou Who, asking "Santa" why he's taking their tree, inHow the Grinch Stole Christmas.[8] In 1960, she provided the speech forMattel's original "Chatty Cathy" doll;[3] capitalizing on this, Foray also voiced the malevolent "Talky Tina" doll in theTwilight Zone episode "Living Doll", first aired on November 1, 1963.[12]

Foray worked forHanna-Barbera, including onScooby-Doo, Where Are You!,The Jetsons,The Flintstones and many other shows. In 1959, she auditioned for the part ofBetty Rubble onThe Flintstones and voiced the character in the original pilot episode, oppositeMel Blanc who voiced Betty's husband,Barney Rubble, butBea Benaderet was eventually cast in the role; Foray described herself as "terribly disappointed" at not getting to play Betty.[13] Foray eventually made a guest appearance onThe Flintstones as the voice of Granny Hatrock in the episode "The Bedrock Hillbillies".
She did extensive voice acting forStan Freberg's commercials, albums, and1957 radio series, memorably as secretary to the werewolf advertising executive. She also appeared in severalRankin/Bass TV specials in the 1960s and 1970s, voicing the young Karen and the teacher in the TV specialFrosty the Snowman (although only her Karen singing parts remained in later airings, after Rankin-Bass re-edited the special a few years after it debuted, with Foray's dialogue re-dubbed by an uncredited child actress, Suzanne Davidson).[14] She voiced all the female roles inRikki-Tikki-Tavi (1975), including the villainous cobra Nagaina.[15] She played multiple characters onThe Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, includingNatasha Fatale andNell Fenwick, as well as male lead characterRocket J. Squirrel (a.k.a. Rocky Squirrel) forJay Ward,[16] and played Ursula onGeorge of the Jungle; and also starred onFractured Flickers.[17]
In the mid-1960s, she became devoted to the preservation and promotion of animation and wrote numerous magazine articles about animation.[9] She and a number of other animation artists had informal meetings around Hollywood in the 1960s, and later decided to formalize this asASIFA-Hollywood, a chapter of the Association Internationale du Film d'Animation (theInternational Animated Film Association).[18] She is credited with coming up with the idea of theAnnie Awards in 1972, awarded by ASIFA-Hollywood, having noted that there had been no awards to celebrate the field of animation.[18] In 1988, she was awarded theBob Clampett Humanitarian Award.[19] In 1995, ASIFA-Hollywood established the June Foray Award,[20] which is awarded to "individuals who have made a significant and benevolent or charitable impact on the art and industry of animation". Foray was the first recipient of the award. She was an enthusiastic member of theLos Angeles Student Film Institute advisory board and frequent host and/or presenter at its annual festivals.[21][22] In 2007, Foray became a contributor toASIFA-Hollywood's Animation Archive Project.[23] She also had sat on the Governors' board for theAcademy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences and lobbied for two decades for the academy to establish anAcademy Award for animation; the academy created theAcademy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2001 from her petitioning.[18]
In 2007,Britt Irvin became the first person to voice a character in a cartoon remake that had been previously played by Foray in the original series when she voiced Ursula in the newGeorge of the Jungle series onCartoon Network. In 2011,Roz Ryan voicedWitch Lezah (Hazel spelled backwards) inThe Looney Tunes Show, opposite June Foray as Granny.[24] Foray also voicedMay Parker inSpider-Man and His Amazing Friends (1981–83), as well asRaggedy Ann on several TV movies, Grandma Howard onTeen Wolf, Jokey Smurf and Mother Nature onThe Smurfs, andMagica De Spell andMa Beagle inDuckTales. At the same time, she had a leading role voicing Grammi Gummi onDisney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears, an animated series credited with kickstarting an era of dramatically increased artistic standards for television animation,[25] working with herRocky and Bullwinkle co-starBill Scott until his death in 1985.[26]
Foray guest starred only once onThe Simpsons, in the season one episode "Some Enchanted Evening", as the receptionist for the Rubber Baby Buggy Bumper Babysitting Service. This was a play on aRocky & Bullwinkle gag years earlier in which none of the cartoon's characters, including narratorWilliam Conrad, were able to pronounce "rubber baby buggy bumpers" unerringly. Foray was laterhomaged byThe Simpsons, in the season eight episode "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show", in which the character June Bellamy (voiced byTress MacNeille) is introduced as the voice behind bothItchy and Scratchy.[27][28] According toThe Simpsons writer and producerMike Reiss, Foray voiced a few parts at the first table read forThe Simpsons in early 1989 "but she sounded too cartoony for our show".[29]
Foray appeared on camera in a major role only once, inSabaka, as the high priestess of a fire cult. She also appeared on camera in an episode ofGreen Acres as a Mexican telephone operator. In 1991, she provided her voice as the sock-puppet talk-show host Scary Mary on an episode ofMarried... with Children. She had a cameo role inBoris & Natasha (1992), but once again played Rocky and Natasha throughout the feature filmThe Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000). Another on-camera appearance was as herself on an episode of the 1984 TV sitcomThe Duck Factory.[30]
She was also often called in forADR voice work for television and feature films. This work included dubbing the voice ofMary Badham inTwilight Zone episode "The Bewitchin' Pool" and the voices for Sean and Michael Brody in some scenes of the filmJaws. She dubbed several people inBells Are Ringing,Diana Rigg in some scenes ofThe Hospital,Robert Blake in drag in an episode ofBaretta and a little boy inThe Comic.[31]
In 1996 and 1997, Foray won theAnnie Award for Outstanding Individual Achievement for Voice Acting by a Female Performer in an Animated Television Production for her work inSylvester and Tweety Mysteries. In 2000, Foray returned to play Rocky the Flying Squirrel inUniversal Pictures' live-action/CGI animated filmThe Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle, co-starring and produced byRobert De Niro. On Season Three, Episode One ("The Thin White Line") ofFamily Guy, Foray again played Rocky in a visual gag with a single line ("And now, here's something we hope you'll really like!"). Foray voiced the wife of the man getting dunked ("Don't tell him, Carlos!") in thePirates of the Caribbean attraction. In 2003, she guest starred as the villain Madame Argentina in thePowerpuff Girls episode, "I See a Funny Cartoon in Your Future". During this time, Foray also had a regular role, reprising Granny onBaby Looney Tunes and also Witch Hazel in an episode of anotherWarner Bros. Animation seriesDuck Dodgers. In October 2006, she portrayedSusan B. Anthony on three episodes of the podcastThe Radio Adventures of Dr. Floyd. In November 2009, Foray appeared twice onThe Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack: in one episode as Ruth, a pie-maker trapped in Bubbie's stomach, and in another episode as Kelly, a young boy having a birthday party and as Kelly's Mom and Captain K'Nuckles' kindergarten teacher.[citation needed]
In 2011, she reprised her role as Granny inCartoon Network'sThe Looney Tunes Show, which was her last regular gig. That year, she received the Comic-Con Icon Award at the2011 Scream Awards. She also appeared as Granny in the theatrically releasedLooney Tunes short,I Tawt I Taw a Puddy Tat, which was shortlisted for Academy Award consideration.[32]
In 2012, Foray received her first Emmy nomination and won in the category ofOutstanding Performer in an Animated Program for her role as Mrs. Cauldron onThe Garfield Show.[33] She thus became, at age 94, the oldest entertainer to be nominated for, and to win, anEmmy Award.[34] In 2014, Foray reprised her role as Rocky in aRocky & Bullwinkle short film, which served as her final voice role.[35]
In September 2013, she was honored with the Governors Award at the65th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.[36] That same year, she reprised her role as Magica De Spell in the video gameDuckTales: Remastered.
Foray married Bernard Barondess in 1941.[37] The marriage ended in divorce.[38] She met Hobart Donovan while appearing onThe Buster Brown Program on radio. He was the show's main writer and had also writtenThe Buster Brown comic book. Foray and Donovan were married from 1955 until Donovan's death in 1976.[39] She had no children by either marriage.
In 1973, Foray was an organizer of a meat boycott in response toPresident Nixon's freezing of meat (and other) prices.[40] As a result of this, Foray was included in theMaster list of Nixon's political opponents, commonly known asNixon's Enemies List.[41][42][43]
Foray died at a hospital inLos Angeles,California, on July 26, 2017, at the age of 99. She had been in declining health since an automobile accident in 2015.[18][44]
