My favorite actress in the world is the legendary June Foray, the first lady of cartoon voice acting. My pal Earl Kress and I are helping her with her autobiography and when it's out, you may be stunned to learn how much she's done…I mean, besides being the voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel, Natasha, Dudley Do-Right's girl friend, Tweety's owner, etc. An amazing lady who's had an amazing career.
When will you be able to read this book? Well, we're hoping to finish it in time for its publisher to have copies at this year's Comic-Con International in San Diego. June is a Guest of Honor and we thought it might be nice if attendees could buy a book and get June to sign it. So we're racing to finish…and we need help. (My assistant recently left me for a real job.)
Is there someone out there who'd like to transcribe 5-6 hours of June Foray interviews for us? It has to be done in the next few days and while it doesn't have to be perfect, it would help if the transcriber had a little knowledge of cartoons. This can be done via the 'net: I send you MP3s, you type it all out and send it back to me, and then I send you very low money, plus you get thanked in June's book and we'll have her sign you a copy. If you're interested, drop me an e-mail. [UPDATE: I have over a hundred applicants…so thanks but no more are needed.]
