William Farmer (born November 14, 1952) is an American voice actor and comedian, best known for his roles as [[WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts Disney characters]] WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}} and [[WesternAnimation/PlutoThePup Pluto]]. Farmer has done all kinds of voices for other characters, in {{western animation}} and {{video games}}, including a few ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' characters. However, despite doing a lot of funny-voiced characters, Farmer takes voice acting seriously, emphasis on acting. This was taught to him by his mentor, the late Creator/DawsButler. ''WesternAnimation/AGoofyMovie'' is a fine example of this, really giving Goofy a broad emotional range throughout the film.

Born in Pratt, Kansas, Farmer was always doing voices since his youth. At 15, he had started imitating such [[TheWestern Western]] stars as Creator/JohnWayne and Creator/WalterBrennan, and he would drive up to fast food drive-thru windows and place his orders in character voices, much to the bewilderment of the people at the fast food spots and his friends in the car with him. In college, he worked in TV and radio before moving on to stand-up comedy. In 1982, he worked at a comedy club in Dallas, Texas. Four years later, as per a suggestion from his agent, he moved out to Hollywood, California to try his character voices there. It was here that Farmer assumed the roles of cartoon voices, especially Goofy, whom he has been voicing since early 1987.
