Michael Winslow

Actor and comedian Michael Winslow is known worldwide for his wacky role as officer Larvelle Jones in the "Police Academy" film series.

After winning the Gong Show's top honors twice, he made his film debut in "Cheech And Chongs Next Movie" followed by "Cheech And Chong's Nice Dreams". His movie career continued with featured roles in "Alphabet City" with Vincent Spano and "Grand View USA" starring Jamie Lee Curtis.

When "Police Academy" became a smash success, his celebrity status was all but assured. He then went on to play a part in Mel Brooks' "Spaceballs", a film that helped to further spotlight his unique style of comedy. He was also heard, but not seen, when he supplied the voice of Stripe, the evil little creature, in the hit movie "Gremlins".

Michael, a master of vocal gymnastics, can imitate over 1,000 sound effects using his voice alone. Whether he is recreating the frenzy of Jimi Hendrix playing the guitar, or the roar of a jet plane, his versatility is truly remarkable.
