Disney Voice Actor Legend Pete Renaday Passes Away at 89

The Disney community mourns the loss of legendary voice actor Pierre Renoudet, known professionally as Pete Renaday, who passed away at the age of 89. Renaday was a beloved figure among Disney fans, particularly for his iconic roles as Henry and Max in the Country Bear Jamboree attraction.

His distinctive voice graced numerous other Disney attractions over the years, including Captain Nemo in Walt Disney World’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Abraham Lincoln in The Hall of Presidents (from 1994–2008), the narrator in the Disneyland version of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and the narrator in The Walt Disney Story. His contributions also extended to the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, Adventure Thru Inner Space, and the Mark Twain Riverboat.

Beyond his work at Disney parks, Renaday’s voice acting talents reached a wider audience. He notably voiced the wise and patient Splinter in the iconic “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” cartoon series in the late 1980s, further solidifying his place in pop culture history.


Renaday’s passing leaves a void in the Disney community, but his legacy will live on through the countless characters he brought to life with his remarkable voice. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time. Thank you for the magic, Pete.
