Who is your favourite voiceover spokesmodel? I like Denis Leary though I could not tell you what he
sells. I just like the sound of his voice.

3. Don LaFontaine is sorely missed...

You probably don't recognize his name, but you've heard his voice a thousand times in film trailers...
He died in 2008, and other voice-over artists are still trying to recreate his distinct style.

4. I liked
Robert Mitchum when he did those "Beef, it's what for dinner" commercials some years back. He made me want to buy it even though I rarely ate or served it. Can't stand hearing Tim Allen (Campbell's Soup)and Tom Selleck's (orange juice) voiceovers. I rarely buy canned soup anyway and would never buy "fresh" packaged orange juice anyway after I read here how it is made!

8. George Fenneman
"The names have been changed to protect the innocent."

He may have been born in China, but he was one of San Francisco's favorite sons. Gracie Allen was definitely San Francisco's favorite daughter.
