Donald Earle Messick (September 7, 1926 – October 24, 1997) was an American voice actor, known for his performances in Hanna-Barbera cartoons.[1]
His best-remembered voice roles include
Early life
Messick was born on September 7, 1926, in
Career
Early work
At first, Messick wanted to be a
Messick moved back to Baltimore a year later, after graduating high school, and approached radio station WCAO about getting his one-man show on the air.[3] As Messick worked to reduce the Baltimore accent identified by the manager of WCAO as an impediment to his radio career, Messick's father was killed, along with two other men, in an accident at the Nanticoke School. Two other workers and he were taking down a flagpole when it came into contact with electric power lines, electrocuting all three men.[3]
In 1944, Messick joined the US Army, performing for troops as a part of the
At MGM, Tex Avery was producing the Droopy cartoons. The regular voice actor Bill Thompson was unavailable. Avery hired Messick after Daws Butler, who voiced characters for MGM, suggested him.[2]
Early Hanna Barbera voice work
When
From 1957 to 1965, Butler and Messick gave voice to a large number of characters. Always the sidekick, Messick's characters were not headliners. His notable roles in this era were Boo Boo Bear, Ranger Smith,
He was used primarily for his narration skills, which were heard on many of those cartoons in which Daws Butler starred. In narrating The Huckleberry Hound Show's Yogi Bear cartoons, he played Ranger Smith in something close to his natural voice.
Messick was eventually featured as Ricochet Rabbit in
In outer-space cartoons, Don Messick created noises and sounds for weird space creatures and aliens. His Ranger Smith voice was often heard as various space villains. His narrator voice was given to Vapor Man, Dr. Benton Quest, the Perilous Paper Doll Man, and
Scooby-Doo and later roles
In 1969, he was cast as the cowardly canine
In Hong Kong Phooey, he was the voice of Spot the Cat, a faithful sidekick that was the one who foiled the villain's plans, though he let the clueless title character take the glory. In 1977, he voiced Balin and a few incidental characters in the first animated adaptation of The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien.
By the 1970s, the popularity of Yogi Bear led to several spin-off TV series and television movies featuring the character. Messick reprised his roles of Boo-Boo and Ranger Smith from the 1970s until 1994 on
He played Papa Smurf on
He also starred in the Masters of the Universe Golden Book video as He-Man.[citation needed] In 1985, he voiced Louie and Snichey in The Pound Puppies TV special, in 1988, he had an uncredited role as the Pimp of the Year pageant announcer on I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, and he returned to his role of Benton Quest on The New Adventures of Jonny Quest (1986–1987).
Messick also played a live-action role on the MTM Enterprises sitcom Duck Factory, playing a cartoon voice actor named Wally Wooster. In one episode, frequent collaborator Frank Welker guest-starred as a rival voice artist angling for his job. Don Messick said of his character on the show: "Wally was never quite sure whether he was Wally or Dippy Duck".[5]
From 1990 to 1995, he voiced Hamton J. Pig in
At a charity speaking engagement in London, shortly before his death, he performed many of his characters, except Scooby-Doo. He claimed that giving up smoking had robbed him of the rasp in the voice that he needed to voice him.
Retirement
In late September 1996, Messick retired from acting after he suffered a stroke at a recording session at Hanna-Barbera.
On October 12, 1996, he had a "retirement party" at his favorite Chinese restaurant (Joseph Barbera personally sent a limo to Messick and his wife, and the two were chauffeured). Many of his friends and peers during his career who had come to pay tribute to him included Henry Corden, Casey Kasem, Lucille Bliss, Maurice LaMarche, Gregg Berger, Neil Ross, June Foray, Sharon Mack, Greg Burson, Walker Edmiston, Marvin Kaplan, Gary Owens, Howard Morris, Teresa Ganzel, Jean Vander Pyl, and Myrtis Martin Butler (Daws' widow).[6]
Personal life
Messick married Helen McHugh on October 10, 1953, and they remained married until Messick's death on October 24, 1997.[1] Together, they had one child.[1]
Death
Don Messick suffered a second stroke and died on October 24, 1997, in Salinas, California. He was 71 years old.[7][6][1]
Legacy
Since Messick's death in 1997, Hadley Kay, Scott Innes,[7] Neil Fanning, and Frank Welker have all voiced the role of Scooby-Doo. In 1998, Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island was dedicated to his memory. In 2011, Jonathan Winters (who voiced Grandpa Smurf in the television series) became Messick's successor as the voice of Papa Smurf in The Smurfs and its 2013 sequel. Winters died after finishing his voice work on the latter film. In 2000, Billy West also became one of Messick's successors as the new voice of Muttley in the 2000 Dreamcast video game, the 2017 reboot of Wacky Races,[8] and in the Scooby-Doo! animated film Scoob! which featured archive recordings of Messick for Muttley's laugh and a place named after him called "Messick Mountain".
