**Robert Bergen** (born March 8, 1964) is an American voice actor. He voices Warner Bros. cartoon characters Porky Pig and Tweety and has voiced characters in the English dubs of various anime. He formerly hosted the children's game show *Jep!*, adapted from the game show *Jeopardy!*.

## Life and career

Bergen, in his childhood, watched the Daffy and Speedy cartoons in theaters and didn't like them, saying they didn't make sense. He then watched The Bugs Bunny / Road Runner Show in his later childhood.

As a teenager in 1980, Bergen appeared as a contestant on a Teen Week episode of *Wheel of Fortune*, winning prizes including a watch.

Bergen had taken acting lessons with Daws Butler at his weekly voice-over workshop.

Bergen is the current voice of the animated character Porky Pig, and has also voiced Tweety, Marvin the Martian, Sylvester Jr., and Speedy Gonzales.

Bergen is responsible for the voice of Arsène Lupin III for the Streamline Pictures dubs in the late 1980s and early 1990s: *The Mystery of Mamo* (directed by Sōji Yoshikawa), *The Castle of Cagliostro* (directed by Hayao Miyazaki) and *Lupin III's Greatest Capers* (two TV episodes from series two directed by Hayao Miyazaki). He also played the part of No-Face in the 2001 Academy Award-winning movie *Spirited Away*, one of the firefighters in *The Incredibles*, and Kai and Masaru in the Streamline-dubbed version of the anime classic *Akira*.

He is also responsible for the voice of Luke Skywalker in over a dozen *Star Wars* video games as well as the *Robot Chicken* episodes *Episode I*, *II* and *III*, the voice of Wembley and the World's Oldest Fraggle for the animated *Fraggle Rock*, was selected to play the animated versions of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Link Hogthrob in the ill-fated *Little Muppet Monsters*, and also voiced characters of the day in the 1987–89 seasons of *Muppet Babies*.

He appeared as himself in interview segments of the documentary *I Know That Voice*.

He also voiced Wind-Up in *Skylanders: Swap Force*, *Skylanders: Trap Team* and *Skylanders: SuperChargers*.

In 1998, Bergen hosted *Jep!*, the children's version of *Jeopardy!*, on Game Show Network. He has also appeared on the ABC game show *To Tell the Truth*.

Bergen is Jewish.
