American voice and character actor (1924–1992)
Ralph James Torrez (November 29, 1924 – March 14, 1992) was an American voice and character actor who lived in Los Angeles County, California.
He did voices for the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoon series, but rarely received screen credit, as generally Mel Blanc was the only voice artist credited.
James was the voice of Mr. Turtle in commercials for Tootsie Pops candy which ran throughout the 1970s. From 1978 to 1982, he was the voice of Orson, Mork’s (Robin Williams) boss on the Planet Ork, in the Mork & Mindy TV series, a spin-off from Happy Days which launched Willusms’ career.[1] In addition, he provided character voiceovers in the Pink Panther cartoon shorts produced by DePatie-Freleng.
James also made several live acting appearances, including in the action/sexploitation film Big Bad Mama, where he played the minor role of a sheriff, Capone (1975), where he played the part of Judge J. H. Wilkerson, and the part of “Ace” in Sixpack Annie (1975).[2]
James died in 1992 at the age of 67.
