Henry Corden

Henry Corden, born on January sixth, nineteen twenty, was a talented Canadian-born American actor whose career spanned various mediums, including stage, television, film, and voice acting. He is perhaps best remembered for his iconic role as the voice of Fred Flintstone, a character he took over after the passing of Alan Reed in nineteen seventy-seven.

Corden's journey as Fred Flintstone began earlier than his full-time role. His official debut came in nineteen sixty-five with a Hanna-Barbera record titled 'Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble in Songs from Mary Poppins.' He also lent his voice to Reed in the theatrical film 'The Man Called Flintstone' in nineteen sixty-six, as well as in several Hanna-Barbera specials, including 'Alice in Wonderland or What's a Nice Kid like You Doing in a Place like This?' and 'Energy: A National Issue' in nineteen seventy-seven.

In nineteen seventy-seven, Corden embraced the role of Fred Flintstone full-time, starting with the syndicated weekday series 'Fred Flintstone and Friends.' His contributions included providing voice-overs for brief bumper clips that aired between segments, further solidifying his legacy in the world of animation.
