- Actor

- Voice Actor - Dubbing
Olan Soule was born in La Harpe, Illinois and began his acting career in
1926 on radio, performing for 11 years in the daytime soap opera
"Bachelor's Children". A versatile actor with a "chameleon-like" voice,
Soule played the male lead characters in plays presented on the evening
radio show "First Nighter" for 9 years beginning in 1943. Listeners of
the show who met him were often surprised, since his slight 135 pound
body didn't seem to match the voices he gave to his characters. The
First Nighter troupe moved to Hollywood, where Soule stayed and
eventually worked his way into television.
