Ralph Wright
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ralph Wright was born on September 12, 1906 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Wright was a Disney animator and story/storyboard writer who is best known for providing the gloomy, sullen voice of Eeyore from the popular Winnie-the-Pooh franchise. Wright came to the studio in the 1940s and became well known throughout the ensuing decades for his endearingly gloomy and sullen personality traits as well as his bass voice. He turned out to be a natural model for Eeyore when the studio began development on Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree and remained the voice of that character for many years until his death on March 20, 1988 of a stroke. He died in Salem, Oregon.
