Randy spent nine years on staff at Warner Bros.

Rob Paulsen, Voice Actor

Born in Detroit, Rob Paulsen spent his childhood in Livonia and Rochester, attending junior and senior high school in Grand Blanc, Michigan. Rob loved cartoons like most kids but aspired to be a professional hockey player. "Fortunately, thanks to some big, strong kid from Winnipeg who drilled me so hard my ears are still ringing, I learned around the age of 18 I had neither the talent nor the temperament to make a living playing hockey. So, I turned to my other passions: singing and acting." The goal of bringing absolute believability to a character, live-action or animated, is what every actor strives for. Those who are commited to their career and who combine experience, passion and skill are likely to succeed. With over 2,000 half-hours of animation credits, Rob's versatility shines in his starring roles as the voices of Donatello (Nickelodeon's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), Yakko Warner, Pinky and Dr. Scratch'n'Sniff in the Peabody and two-time Emmy Award-winning series Animaniacs. Rob himself has been nominated for three Emmys with one win, and six Annies with three wins. As passionate about "paying it forward" as he is about his lucrative career, Rob supports various charities, particularly those benefitting children and military veterans. In his leisure time, Rob enjoys golf, cruising the PCH, and occasionally lacing up his skates for another chance to relive his past glory on the rink. He spends the majority of his free time with his wife, Parrish, and their Yorkshire terriers, Pooshie and Tala. "Laughter's the best medicine: the cool thing is, you can't OD and the refills are free."
