Disney Legend Dick Jones, the Voice of Pinocchio, Dies at Age 87

Actor Dick Jones, who at age 10 was the voice of Pinocchio, passed away July 7 at the age of 87 after a fall at his California home.

Throughout his career, Jones starred in more than 100 films, but he is perhaps best known as the voice of the Pinocchio in Disney's animated feature. Jones was 10 years old when he was hand-picked by Walt Disney for the role.

He worked on the film for 19 months.
