RIP Admiral Ackbar (Erik Bauersfeld)

[Washington Post] The 93-year-old voice actor and radio dramatist died Sunday after career in radio that began half-a-century ago. But no matter how impressive his achievements offscreen, Bakersfield will be remembered by legions of “Star Wars” fans as the voice of Admiral Ackbar, the amphibian-looking rebel commander whose simple warning during a firefight in “Return of the Jedi” — “It’s a trap!” — somehow became legendary.

Saw this the other day, he actually kind of looked like the Admiral, not really a good thing.

Rest In Peace, Mr. Bakersfield
