He became the second actor to voice Disney’s diminutive character, beginning in 1973. Carroll also staged one-man shows in tribute to the legendary comedian.
Eddie Carroll, an actor who for decades gave voice to Jiminy Cricket in Disney projects and impersonated Jack Benny in a noted one-man stage show, has died. He was 76.
Carroll died Tuesday from a brain tumor at the Motion Picture and Television Fund Hospital in Woodland Hills, said his wife, Carolyn.
Eddie was a frequent voice-over visitor to the Famous Radio Ranch. Several years ago, he played the Benny character for a series of Ranch created and produced US Healthcare spots.
He was a talented and superbly affable man and will be much missed. The Radio Ranch extends condolences to his family.
