  13. Stan Francis

The virtually unknown actor who voiced Santa Claus for Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Francis was a little known actor who had appeared in a handful of TV guest spots when he was hired to do the voice of Santa Claus for this special (he also did the voice of King Moonracer). Nobody at the time would have predicted people would still be watching the show forty-eight years later.

It was Francis’ last acting job and his IMDB page is devoid of any biographical data.

I’ll pass on a new category.
