Singer
Singer and actor who appeared in second-string Republic Pictures musicals during the wartime 40s. His career went nowhere and he became a better behind-the-scenes singing double.
Best remembered for providing Prince Phillips singing voice in the Walt Disney animated classic Sleeping Beauty , Bill also sang Freddy Eynsford-Hills vocals ("On the Street Where You Live") in the film version of My Fair Lady Actor Jeremy Brett , who played the role of Freddy in the film, long claimed that he himself sang the role and that Bill merely "sweetened the high tones." Brett finally admitted years later in the 1994 documentary The Making of My Fair Lady that Bill indeed supplied the singing voice.
Born in Indianapolis, Indiana, and attended Shortridge High School. Buried in Crown Hill Cemetery, Indianapolis.
