3	Gregory Lewis Burson (June 29, 1949 – July 22, 2008) was an American voice actor, best known for officially voicing a number of classic ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' and Creator/HannaBarbera characters during TheNineties and the early [[TurnOfTheMillennium Noughties]].

7	In his personal life, Burson struggled with [[TheAlcoholic alcoholism]]. This culminated in 2004, when an armed and inebriated Burson was arrested after barricading himself inside his home for six hours. The incident [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor killed his career]], which unfortunately [[YankTheDogsChain only drove him further into depression and to reach more and more for the bottle]].
