I'm fortunate in that I'm what you call a utility player, in that I can take a scene, if there's five or six minor characters in a scene, that need voice and personality [and] I can supply those characters.

Mel Blanc passed away in '89, and they held auditions, and I did my first job [as Porky Pig] in 1990.

I had a very specific goal and I think kids, more than adults, don't understand obstacles and competition. I wanted to be this one cartoon character [Porky Pig], couldn't figure out why I couldn't do it, other than living in the midwest.

There's no such thing as good voices. Because there's no such thing as bad voices. There are only good actors and bad actors.

For people who want to get into the voiceover industry, even if you want to get into commercial, you need to become a really, really good actor.

No matter what it is in life that you want kid, just want it worse than anybody else [and] work harder than anybody else to get there.
