[edit] Life and Work

According to her biography on the Disney Legends website, Tyler grew up in Seattle and that her family had a rich legacy of storytelling and imitation of animal sounds, which proved very useful to her later on in her career as an artist. She first appeared before a radio microphone sometime in the 1940s and became host of her own children's show "Magic Island" in 1951. Later, Tyler began to work more and more offscreen as a voice artist, appearing in several cartoons and narrating vinyl recordings od Disney classics like Bambi and Babes in Toyland. Tyler provided the voice of the amorous squirrel who falls in love with the young King Arthur while he is in the form of a male squirrel and becomes heartbroken after discovering that he is really human in The Sword in the Stone. She also played Jan in Space Ghost and Dino Boy and Sue Richards, the Invisible Woman, in the 1978 television series Fantastic Four. Although Tyler has retired and moved back to Seattle, she still occassionally does some recording for local productions.
