Cam Clarke is an American voice actor with a career spanning several decades, known for his extensive work in animation, video games, and English dubs of anime. He began his acting career as a child performer on television in the 1960s before transitioning to voice acting in the 1980s, studying under voice actor Michael Bell. Over his career, he has voiced hundreds of characters across various media.
In the realm of anime and English dubbing, Clarke has taken on a wide variety of roles. Some of his earlier, prominent work includes voicing Max Sterling and Lance "Lancer" Belmont in the classic series Robotech (1985), often credited under the pseudonym Jimmy Flinders. He also provided voices for several characters in the Spanish-Japanese animated series Around the World with Willy Fog, including Rigadon, Mr. Johnson, and Ralph. Another notable early role was the title character in Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds. He voiced Junichi Narutaki in the Streamline Pictures dub of Doomed Megalopolis (1995). A significant milestone was his role as the original English voice of Shotaro Kaneda in the 1989 Streamline Pictures dub of the iconic film Akira. His more recent anime work includes the role of Masachika Kouda in March Comes in like a lion (2017-2019), Connor and Fred Faraday in the Netflix original anime series Hero Mask (2018-2019), and the Gladiator in Super Crooks (2021). He has also had roles in long-running series such as Bleach, Naruto, and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
Beyond anime, Clarke is widely recognized for his work in Western animation and video games. He is perhaps best known for voicing Leonardo and Rocksteady in the original 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series. He also provided the singing voice for Simba in The Lion King II: Simba's Pride and voiced Prince Adam/He-Man in the 2002 He-Man and the Masters of the Universe series. In the video game world, he is celebrated for his role as Liquid Snake in the Metal Gear Solid series and has lent his voice to numerous other major titles, including the Mass Effect series, for which he won a NAVGTR Award for Supporting Performance in a Drama.
Throughout his prolific career, Clarke has frequently collaborated with a large number of fellow voice actors.

Other frequent collaborators include Cindy Robinson, Jim Cummings, Jennifer Hale, and many others, reflecting the interconnected nature of the voice acting community.
