Ted Lewis - Signed Card Nr:37

Ted Lewis may not be a household name, but his distinctive voice has likely been heard by millions of people. As a voice actor with an impressive career spanning over four decades, Lewis has lent his talents to numerous animated characters and has truly left his mark on the industry.

Recently, I had the opportunity to acquire a signed card from Ted Lewis himself. The card features a headshot of the actor in character as Bakura from the popular anime series Yu-Gi-Oh! With this highly coveted item now in my possession, I couldn't help but delve into the fascinating world of one of animation's most iconic voices.

Born on October 18th, 1969 in Binghamton, New York, Ted Lewis began honing his craft at an early age. From performing skits and radio plays with friends to studying theater at both SUNY Broome and AMDA New York City – it was clear that he had found his passion.

Lewis' talent for creating unique voices became evident when he landed roles such as Bandit Keith from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters and King Dedede from Kirby: Right Back At Ya!. His ability to bring these characters to life through distinct vocal inflections made him stand out in the competitive voice acting industry.

But it wasn't just anime that captured Lewis' attention – he also voiced many beloved cartoon characters including Gadget Hackwrench from Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers and Thundercracker in Transformers: Cybertron. He even lent his voice to video games such as Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption II.

One might wonder how someone can create such diverse voices without damaging their vocal cords – well according to Lewis himself "I have no formal training" he admitted in an interview with Anime Herald (March 14th, 2017). Instead, what sets him apart is "how [he] approaches everything". By putting so much effort into understanding each role, it allows Lewis to fully capture the essence of a character's personality and bring them to life.

As I proudly display my signed Ted Lewis card, I can't help but appreciate the talent behind the voice that has entertained me for so many years. His contribution to the world of animation and video games is undeniable and his iconic voice will continue to live on through classic characters that have become ingrained in popular culture.

In conclusion, acquiring this signed card from such an esteemed voice actor as Ted Lewis has not only added a prized possession to my collection but also opened up my eyes
