My Take
Jim Cummings is, to me, one of the most quietly astonishing performers alive. With over six hundred credits and the official voices of Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, the Tasmanian Devil and Pete, he has shaped more childhoods than most A-list celebrities ever will, yet few could pick him out of a crowd. What I find remarkable is his range, slipping between gentle and ferocious within a single breath, plus a singer's musicality that adds real soul to Disney's roster. That kind of invisible ubiquity is its own art form. I genuinely think he deserves to be a household name, not just a household sound.
