My Take
Michael McConnohie is a voice-acting lifer, and that is exactly why I admire him. From Mansfield, Ohio, he has built a career not just performing but writing, directing, and casting, even running the VoxWorks production house with Melodee Spevack. Voicing the Lich King, Uther, and Kel'Thuzad across more than twenty years of World of Warcraft is staggering longevity; sustaining a world that vast with the timbre of your voice alone takes real mastery. What I respect most is that he loves both sides of the booth, performer and maker. Craftsmen who serve the work rather than the spotlight earn my deepest respect.
Overview
Michael McConnohie is an American voice actor, writer, and director who has provided many voice roles in movies, anime, and video games. He and fellow actress Melodee Spevack run a production company called VoxWorks. For 20+ years, he has been the voice of the Lich King, Uther the Lightbringer, and Kel'Thuzad in the World of Warcraft iterations.
