Roscoe Lee Browne

Roscoe Lee Browne (May 2, 1925 – April 11, 2007) was an American actor and director, known for his rich voice and dignified bearing. He voiced Francis in Oliver & Company and Mr. Arrow in Treasure Planet. He died of stomach cancer in Los Angeles on April 11, 2007, aged 81. He was cremated. He was remembered for his contributions in a New York Times encomium by Frank Crohn, President of The Edna St. Vincent Millay Society: ''We mourn the loss of our long-time Trustee and faithful friend. He was always to be counted upon to be supportive of the aims and purposes of the Society. He filled our lives with the soft sound of poetry as only he could recite it. Now the stage is empty and the lights are low.''
