Peter Cullen, voice actor most famously known as the voice of Optimus Prime, 85.

On a personal note, I met Mr. Cullen when I got the chance to travel down to Florida to see the final shuttle launch, STS-135, in July 2011. Coincidentally, he was at KSC promoting the new "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" movie. I posted a video to YT of the meet-and-greet he did, and even got him to sign my "Transformers: Matrix of Leadership" DVD set of the complete 80's cartoons. Can't say enough nice things about him.

Went to see the 40th screening of The Transformers this weekend.  They had a nice tribute to Mr. Cullen at the beginning and of course that brand new short, which was really great for what it was.... his final performance btw.  Apparently, it did really well.  So well that fathom is arranging more screenings in October.   If you didn't go, I highly recommend it.   

We've lost some great people over the last few weeks...
