Biography

Great figure of the Golden Age of Mexican radio, TV and dubbing, Eduardo Roberto "Lalo" Arozamena Pasarón was a great Mexican actor and singer, fondly remembered by audiences for his baritone voice in both spoken and sung. His appeareances include in voice acting, radio, television, theatre, film, and in performing. He was born on October 2, 1930, in Los Angeles, California, United States, in a family of artists. He was the son of actor and director Eduardo Arozamena and to writer Carmen Pasarón Arenzana. He had a twin brother, Carlos, dead in 2020 at age 89, and four older half sisters from his father's first marriage. Lalo's artistic career started in 1948, becoming one of the most respectable referents in Latin American art. In the 1950s, he was heard in great radio dramas, and later, in 1958, he entered voice dubbing, being the Spanish voice of cartoon characters such as Yogi Bear, the Pink Panther and Daffy Duck, and from film and TV actors, such as Edward G. Robinson, Anthony Quinn and Vincent Price. He got stardom as a voice actor in the 1960s and 1970s, working in different dubbing companies. Another of his great achievements include to perform with secondary characters (mostly villains) in the radio drama "Kalimán". His voice performances are probably remembered mostly by Spanish-spoken youngsters who heard him in cartoons and in television. Singing has been a very important part on Lalo's artistic career. In one of his last dubbing performances from the 1970s, the children's cartoon Yogi's Gang (1973), he sang the Spanish version of the opening theme, with addition of voicing Yogi Bear in the first 3 episodes of the show. He died on December 16, 1973, at age 43, as a result of a deadly fall. He was buried in the Panteón Jardín from México, and more of his most beloved roles were given to other actors, but his legacy and memories won't be forgotten.
