Good day and hello to my readers and sorry if I didn't make it clear on Facebook as I was stumped for a week. Luckily I managed to drag myself out of that, kick my muse in the tuckus and get some neurons and electrons flowing to the coconut to bring you Andrea Romano Week. Who the heck is that some of you are asking? Well, this woman is one of the most influential voice casting directors in the biz. Still no idea? I feel her work speaks for itself but I am willing to give you some highlights. From putting voices to faces as far back as the Smurfs and getting recognition in the business for her success with a WB logistics nightmare
Tiny Toons, our heroine went on to being forced to endure such bile as
The Flintstone Kids,
A Pup Named Scooby-Doo and
The Land Before Time direct-to-video sequels when she got the call that would change her stance in the industry forever.

Yes, I do know Batman's secret identity... |
Getting the hero and villains for
Batman: The Animated Series. Yes, scooping up Kevin Conroy for Batman, Mark Hamil for the Joker, Adrienne Barbeau for Catwoman, John Glover for The Riddler and Richard Moll for Two-Face, her ship had come in. Mind you a gathering of these actors were stuck in a dinky studio during a infamous riot in L.A. and she had to leap down executives throats to point out how dangerous it is for them to be there and to post-pone the filming... hey you need to speak to Conroy or Hamil how that ended. She is the go-to gal for the animation. The lady that gets the talent to the pencil and ink and has more than 30 years experience in the biz, it is safe to know she will get the ace folk for the gig. With that in mind we will touch base on her successful casting with a few episodes for each blockbuster collection.
