Voices behind Tiger and Piglet pass away

[Atsuzen]

The two actors who provided the voices of Tigger and Piglet in the Winnie the Pooh films have died within a day of each other.

Paul Winchell, the voice of Tigger, died Friday morning in his sleep at his home in California. John Fiedler, the voice of Piglet, passed away on Saturday.

Winchell had a long career as a master ventriloquist, inventor and children's TV host, but he may be best known for his work as the friendly tiger in the animated versions of A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh books. Winchell, who gave Tigger the trademark lisp, voiced him from 1968 to 1999.
