QUESTION:
Who was the female voice Dick Orkin used on Chickenman?
ANSWER (straight from the Chicken's mouth):
Jane Runyon. When the show started in 66 she was Jane
Roberts WCFL's on-the-air traffic reporter called Trooper
36-24-36. Her street persona -- a flashy young blonde lady with
non-vocal assets & white short shorts -- tooled around Chicago
streets on a motorcycle, WCFL call-letters displayed in all the
prominent places, including her own prominent places.
Jane, a wonderful Chicago actress, played in the series for the
3 years of its run and, in the last year, married the DJ on whose whose show
the series appeared, and who was also its episode announcer: Jim
Runyon (Wellllllll!); and Jane Roberts become Jane Runyon.
Jim tragically passed away of the big C a few years after their
marriage.
Jane now lives in Hollywood and her daughter, Jennifer,
is an attractive regular on day-time dramas and movies.
Probably more than you wanted to know...but there it is.
