Mel Blanc’s name rests in the highest echelons of voice talent, having given voice to the vast majority of the classic Warner Brother’s animated characters, along with many, many other great vocal performances. For example, I love his many contributions to the Jack Benny Show; though except for a few die-hard fans, not that many of us remember them.
My friend Rowell Gormon got a chance to meet Mel in person many years ago, and in honor of the anniversary (yesterday) of his passing, Rowell has posted some memories of his encounter on his blog. Happy reading.
