==Biography==
Hans Conried was born in Baltimore, MD, and raised both there and in New York City. He studied acting at Columbia University, and played many major classical roles onstage. After having been a member of Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre Company, he was heard as Professor Kropotkin on the radio show My Friend Irma and had various roles on The Edgar Bergen - Charlie McCarthy Show. He was in the original cast of Cole Porter's 1953 Broadway hit Can-Can and stayed with the show for more than a year.
Known for his razor sharp wit, Conried was in demand as an actor, panelist and narrator, appearing frequently in television series and movies throughout the 1940’s to the late 1970s. He was also known as the voice of Captain Hook and Mr. Darling the 1953 Disney animated film Peter Pan and as the model reference and original choice for King Stefan in another Disney animated film of 1959, Sleeping Beauty; but due to his own replacement by Taylor Holmes as the voice for Stefan in the final version, unanswered questions grew and the announcing duke’s voice is left entirely unconfirmed and unknown to this day. Nevertheless, Conried also voiced Snidely Whiplash in Jay Ward’s Dudley Do-Right and the Grinch in Halloween Is Grinch Night.
