Carlo D'Angelo (1919-1973) was one of post-war Italy's most incisive actors and voice actors, known for his powerful, persuasive, and extraordinarily dramatic voice. Trained at the Piccolo Teatro in Milan, he quickly established himself as a performer of great temperament in both classic and modern repertoire, working with directors like Giorgio Strehler and Luchino Visconti on plays such as The Crucible. Alongside his intense theatrical activity, he became a pillar of Italian dubbing, lending his unmistakable voice to international stars like Robert Taylor (in Quo Vadis), Stewart Granger, and Anthony Quinn. He also left an indelible mark on animation as the voice of the tiger Shere Khan in The Jungle Book (1967). Active in cinema (acting in The Great Silence and The Great War) and in famous RAI television dramas (like Canne al vento and The Brothers Karamazov), he died prematurely at only 54.
