Biography

Panicali was born in Turin to Oscar Panicali, a Bersaglieri colonel, and Lidia Gazzeri. He started his acting career on screen in 1934, appearing in nine films in total within 21 years.[2] He has even performed acting work for the EIAR public service broadcasting company.

Panicali was also a voice dubbing artist, dubbing foreign language films for release in Italy.[3] He was considered to be among the greatest champions of dubbing during the Golden Ages and typically dubbed over the voices of actors such as Tyrone Power, Bing Crosby, Robert Taylor, Glenn Ford, Kirk Douglas, Ray Milland, Robert Mitchum, Ronald Reagan, Henry Fonda, Joel McCrea, Fred MacMurray, Montgomery Clift and many more. In Panicali's animated roles, he voiced the Prince in the Italian version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.[4][5]

As a dubbing director, Panicali oversaw the Italian dialogue for many foreign films, including several animated Disney films such as The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book and Lady and the Tramp.
