English Voices of the Spaghetti Westerns ~ Robert Spafford

 

Robert Spafford was born in England on August 25, 1913. He was an actor and director, known for “The Last Temptation of Christ” (1988), “Hearts and Armour” (1983) and “Teresa” (1987). He died on April 28, 2000.Trivia Spafford worked extensively as a voice actor for the English language dubbing of several hundred Italian films between 1960-1990. His voice is an unmistakable gruff, booming voice often heard as a narrator for Italian sword and sandal epics. He did many more voice overs and dubbings than the ones I have listed below but they are the only ones I could find. 

He died on April 28, 2000.

SPAFFORD, Robert [8/25/1913, England, U.K. – 4/28/2000] – producer, director, writer, film, voice actor, married to Susan Mueller (19??-2000).
