Brock Peters, Dark Kat's Voice Actor
This is an Out of Character entry. Dark Kat's voice actor Brock Peters passed away Tuesday, August 23rd 2005. He did other voice work for other cartoons, more recent a couple voices in Samurai Jack, and I (Annu who maintains this LJ) have enjoyed his work since I heard his voice on the SWAT Kats. He was also known for movie roles back in the 50's, most notable was his wonderful performance in To Kill a Mockingbird. He's also won several awards including a SAG Lifetime Achievement Award in the early 90's.
Information on the story of his death can be found here and his filmography has always been linked off of my Dark Kat site at Dark Kat's Doomsday Page if you'd like to find out more about him. I thought I'd mention it here in Dark Kat's LJ seeing as if it wasn't for Brock Peters, Dark Kat wouldn't have his great commanding voice to add to his awesome villainous character design.
