"Like millions of people, I've been listening to June Foray for
most of my life. I remember when I first encountered Rocky and
Bullwinkle in their first season on TV, and falling under the spell of
Jay Ward's sharply-written, wonderfully performed cartoons.
What I can't remember is when I learned that the same woman
who provided the voice of Rocky also acted as Natasha, Nell, and a
host of other characters on the series, including the gravely-voiced
fairy godmother who was patterned after character actress Marjorie
Main. But as a diehard cartoon fan, it didn't take me long to memorize
the names of the actors in the show's credits (fleeting though
they were).

"Around the same time I became enamored of Stan Freberg's
comedy records, including such hit singles as "St. George and the
Dragonet" and classic albums like Stan Freberg Presents the United
States of America. The rich, colorful voices on those records became
permanently ingrained in my consciousness, and in time I connected
the dots and realized that June, Paul Frees, and Daws Butler
were the same people I heard on so many cartoon soundtracks."

- Leonard Maltin, from his Foreword
