We love celebrating voice actors just as much as we love celebrating character actors here on TBR, and today’s Celebrity Birthday Boy is a voice actor of epic proportions! Jess Harnell started his career in 1989 with barely any experience, and one of his first jobs was providing voices for the characters of Br’er Rabbit and Br’er Fox on the Disneyland ride Splash Mountain. Further work with Disney followed, with Harnell providing a voice on an episode of the cartoon Goof Troop, and in 1993, Harnell landed one of the roles that would come to be his most famous: that of Wakko Warner on Animaniacs. Other properties featuring Jess Harnell voice work include Biker Mice From Mars, Casper, The Tick, The Mask, Freakazoid!, Rugrats, The Weird Al Show, Cow and Chicken, Pinky and the Brain, Buzz Lightyear of Star comman, The Simpsons, Samurai Jack, Dexter’s Laboratory, Cars, Grim & Evil, Transformers, Drawn Together, Ponyo, Igor, Cars 2, The Lorax, and Wreck-It Ralph. Jess Harnell turns 49 today.
