Yeah, I Know It's August and Not June, But...

I'll let Mark Evanier break the news...

That's a photo of Bill Scott, who was the voice of Bullwinkle and the producer of his show, and June Foray, who was the voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel. This photo did not make the cut and is not found in June's newly-released autobiography, Did You Grow Up With Me, Too?

But dozens of other great photos did. They illustrate the wonderful anecdotes and the delightful tale of how this tiny lady with the big voice became the First Lady of Cartoon Voices...and by the way, she's also been heard in hundreds and hundreds of non-animated movies and TV shows and commercials, and she founded the L.A. branch of ASIFA and she was on the Board of Governors of the Motion Picture Academy and she's just an amazing woman.

The book made its debut at the Comic-Con in San Diego, where the line of June's fans backed up to Frostbite Falls. Not everyone had a chance to purchase one with her autograph so we've decided to make that possible. We've set up www.juneforay.com where you can go — right this minute, even — and order your every own copy, signed by June...and she'll even autograph it to you.

Earl Kress and I helped her write it, and our pal Leonard Maltin contributed the foreword. But never mind us. Get one because it's June Foray. That's reason enough right there.

Once again, that's www.juneforay.com. Your one-stop destination for copies of June Foray's autobiography signed by June Foray.
