My Take
You almost certainly know Charlie Adler's voice even if his name draws a blank, and that anonymity is exactly what makes him remarkable to me. Buster Bunny, the Bigheads, Ickis, MODOK, Cobra Commander, and on and on. He has poured life into dozens of characters while also writing and directing voice work and handling casting. I'm drawn to performers who treat the unseen craft as seriously as any on-camera star would, and Adler's range plus his behind-the-scenes leadership mark him as a genuine artisan of animation. He's the invisible engine behind a lot of childhoods, mine included in spirit.
