BOING #7 Interview with June Foray

BOING!#7, The legendary voice actress June Foray joins me in a wonderfully candid interview that covers her long and prolific career as well as her start in radio as a young girl performing in a local radio drama in the 30's when she was just 12 years old! June is most recognized as the voice behind Rocky J. Squirrel (from the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show) as well as Granny (from the Looney Tune shows) featuring Tweety and Sylvester. Her voice talents can be heard in countless numbers of animated features as well as record albums, toys and video games. Even today, June is still working in the industry! She is a wonderful person and her stories will both
entertain and amaze you.
