Played the title role in "The Major Hoople" radio series that debuted on NBC's Blue Network on June 22, 1942.

Trademark:

While off-screen in animation, especially as hunter, Elmer Fudd, Arthur Q. Bryan almost continiously mispronounced the letter w with r, just barely below 100%. He said wabbit for rabbit. In real life, he did not have a speaking lisp. He also acted in his speaking abilities, almost like Mel Blanc. See more »
