Voice Actor

The Resume

    (August 30, 1949-June 12, 1994)
    Born in Orange, New Jersey
    Voice actor and comedian
    Provided the voice of Cobra Commander in 'G.I. Joe' and Starscream in 'The Transformers'
    Appeared in the films 'Road House' (1989), 'True Identity' (1991) and 'Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot' (1992) and episodes of 'Star Trek: The Next Generation,' 'Seinfeld' and 'Married... with Children'

Why he might be annoying:

    He changed his last to Collins after being adopted by his stepfather, but reverted to Latta when he started voice work because there already was a Christopher Collins in SAG. Meanwhile, he continued using the name Collins for his stand-up appearances.
    He was the original voice of Mr. Burns and Moe the bartender in The Simpsons but was let go during a first season shake-up and was replaced by Harry Shearer and Hank Azaria, respectively.
    Due to his hulking appearance, most of his on-screen roles were as thugs, such as the subway mugger who threatens Kramer in an episode of Seinfeld.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He won the prestigious San Francisco International Stand-Up Comedy Competition (1990).
    Susan Blu, who voiced Arcee in 'The Transformers,' said he was one of the most energetic people she ever worked with.
    As the voice of the leading villains in two of the 80s most popular cartoons, he made an indelible impression on the decade's rugrats.
