As a Voice Actor Don was a great inspiration and still is today. Making you see what can be if you believe in what you do. Don LaFontaine, the man who popularized the catch phrase "In a world where..." and lent his voice to thousands of movie trailers, has died. He was 68. LaFontaine died Monday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center from complications in the treatment of an ongoing illness, said Vanessa Gilbert, his agent. LaFontaine made more than 5,000 trailers in his 33-year career while working for the top studios and television networks.

Sam remembers his friend, Don LaFontaine, who passed away suddenly on September 1, 2008. Don is survived by Nita Whitaker LaFontaine, a very dear friend of Sam's whose voice can be heard on so many of Sam's songs, including, "Change Is On The Way," "War on War" and, sadly and appropriately - "Only Angels Know."
The world of television and film is silent.

A one minute tribute video.
Complete silence didn't seem appropriate to acknowledge the passing of a man who can be heard on this very channel via his amazing voice-over work.
I chose a few brief snippets of Don's voice. At the beginning is a quick cut of his interview on Dateline in 2000 and at the very end... they way I'd like to think Don would have ended this video tribute.
On a personal note: Those of us who take our trailers and advertising seriously knew about Don and the other members of "The Big Five" years before the Geico car insurance ads put a face to the voice of Don Lafontaine. Don's voice helped solidify all the memories we had as kids, and into adulthood, of the movie...
