About Nancy Cartwright
Nancy Cartwright has often been arrested for truancy and vandalism, yet she maintains a spotless criminal record. She has repeated the fourth grade dozens of times in spite of earning her college degree.âŻâŻAnd finally, despite being a grown woman, she has given voice to a certain spikey-headed 10-year-old boy for 36+ years. And how, you may ask, has she managed to live this double life? Read on, dude.âŻâŻ As the voice of Bart Simpson, Emmy Award-winning actress Nancy Cartwright quite literallyâŻbreathesâŻlife into one of the most memorable characters in entertainment history. But sheâŻis alsoâŻresponsible for an array of other characters onâŻThe Simpsons, too, making her a versatile performer whoâs proved invaluable to the longest-running scriptedâŻshowâŻof all time. Not that her career begins and ends in Springfieldâfar from it. Nancy has lent her voice toâŻaâŻmyriadâŻofâŻother animated touchstones, from⯠Richie RichâŻto Rugrats, as well as live-action films, video games,âŻaudiobooks and commercials. And now, with the new podcast Simpsons Declassified, Nancy pulls back the curtain on the showâs wildest fan theories, behind-the-scenes stories, and untold moments from over 800 episodesâoffering fans an all-access pass to Springfield like never before. Sheâs at once a cultural icon and a face in theâŻcrowdâa megastarâŻwho walks the streets without being mobbed. Not too shabby for a kid from Kettering, Ohio.
