Julie Bennett, Voice of Cindy Bear in 'Yogi Bear,'
Dies of Coronavirus Complications
--------------------------------------------------
Voice actor veteran Julie Bennett died Tuesday in Los Angeles
from complications related to coronavirus at 88, according to
talent agent and friend Mark Scroggs.

Bennett was best known for her work in the Hanna-Barbera
cartoon series "The Yogi Bear Show" as Cindy Bear, Yogi's
sweet, southern love interest.

Bennett was born in Manhattan on Jan. 24, 1932, but grew up
in Los Angeles. After graduating from Beverly Hills High
School, she returned to New York where she began her career
in theater, radio and television before eventually settling
in L.A.

Her live-action TV credits include "Dragnet," "Leave It to
Beaver," "Get Smart," "Love, American Style" and "Superman,"
as well as appearances on variety shows such as "The Tonight
Show," "The Sid Caesar Show" and several specials on "The Bob
Hope Show."

However, Bennett found her niche as a voice actor, bringing
to life the personality of Cindy Bear for over two decades on
"The Yogi Bear Show" and the series' feature films, "Hey There,
It's Yogi Bear" and "Yogi and the Invasion of the Space Bears."
Her other voiceover ventures include several Looney Tune shows
such as "Bugs Bunny," shows such as "Quick Draw McGraw" and
"The Bullwinkle Show" and Aunt May Parker in the animated
"Spider-Man" series from 1997 to 1998.

She worked on several projects for "Mr. Magoo" producer UPA
Productions, including animated feature "Gay Purr-ee,"
"The Famous Adventures of Mr. Magoo" and Woody Allen's comedic
dub of a Japanese spy film, "What's Up, Tiger Lily?"

Bennett reinvented herself as Marianne Daniels in the early
1990s. She then pursued a career as a personal manager for both
new and established talent, representing her clients for over
20 years.

She is survived by her "mutually adopted family," Carol, Nick
and Mark Scroggs. Donations in her memory can be made to the
Actors Fund.

That's the George Reeves series. Julie was in "The Wedding of
Superman" as Sometimes Mabel, one of the lovelorn letter writers.
However, Julie later played Lois Lane in the 1967 Filmation animated
series, after they gave up using the radio cast.
