Ever so often I take a glance at a site that offers a bit of Disney history for every day of the year. Today, I noticed, was a very big day for actors and voice actors from Disney films. Here's what happened on July 6 in Disney history:
- In 1911, Laverne Andrews, one of the popular Andrews Sisters, was born in Minneapolis. These ladies lent their voices to Disney recordings Make Mine Music (1946) and Melodie Time (1948).
- Sebastian Cabot, the actor who narrated several Winnie the Pooh movies, was born in London in 1918. He also voiced roles in The Jungle Book and The Sword in the Stone.
- Bill Shirley, who voiced Prince Phillip in Sleeping Beauty, was born in 1921 in Indianapolis.
- Ned Beatty, veteran actor who voiced Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear in Toy Story 3, was born in 1937 in Louisville.
- In 1938, Luana Pattern was born in Long Beach, CA. She played Ginny in Song of the South, as well as several other roles in Disney films.
