Mann’s voice was a fixture of my childhood, as both the voice of Yukon Cornelius in the classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Christmas special, and Rusty, the Tin Man in the Rankin-Bass Tales of the Wizard of Oz. I watched that one every day at lunch time. He had a truly distinctive voice that’s etched in my brain to this day.
