Deanna Deceived Disney
TN his search for a voice for Snow White, Disney listened to the voices of 150 girls, Adriana Caselotti relates. Personal ‘appearance mattered not a scrap; in a room far away from the microphone he listened to voice after voice. One he heard was sweet and musical but much too deep for Snow White. Disney phoned through to the test studio. "Haven't I told you," he complained, "I want to hear no more 30-year-olds." The voice was that of Deanna Durbin, then about 11 years of age. Not long later’ the voice which so decelved Disney was to become famous the world over, and its possessor one of Hollywood's most important stars.
