Did You Grow Up with Me, Too?: The Autobiography of June Foray by Mark Evanier, Earl Kress, June Foray

judya's review

4.0

As soon as Ms. Foray passed earlier this year, I rushed to obtain her biography. Interlibrary loan, however, can be slow in this day of budget cuts. I was disappointed at its lack of length, but found it amusingly so (Foray stood 4'11"). It was padded with eulogies for her friends in the world of animation, which were also well-written.
The illustrations are the real charm here. Several personalized sketches by Chuck Jones are included, as are photos of other voice actors. The book is unfailingly upbeat. Picture a real-life Rocky the Flying Squirrel, and you have her personality pegged!
