Platteville, Wisconsin, USA:
John Fiedler (* 3. Februar 1925 in Platteville, Wisconsin; † 25. Juni 2005 in Englewood, New Jersey) war ein US-amerikanischer Schauspieler. Zu seinen bekanntesten Rollen zählen die Stimme des Ferkels bei Winnie Puuh und der Geschworene Nr. 2 im Filmklassiker Die zwölf Geschworenen. 1951 absolvierte der kleine Schauspieler mit der Halbglatze seinen ersten Fernsehauftritt. Seine erste Filmrolle ist seine vielleicht zugleich bekannteste: nämlich als freundlicher, aber sehr ängstlicher Geschworener Nr. 2 im Justizklassiker Die zwölf Geschworenen. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten sollte er in zahlreichen Filmen und Fernsehsendungen ähnlich schüchterne und hektische Charaktere spielen. Zu seinen bekannteren Rollen zählen der sanftmütige Kartenspieler Vinnie in der Komödie Ein seltsames Paar (1968) sowie Anwalt Daggett im Western Der Marshal (1969) neben John Wayne. Vereinzelt spielte er auch Schurkenrollen, etwa in der Folge Wolf in the Fold von Raumschiff Enterprise als Administrator Hengist, der vom Geist von Jack the Ripper besessen ist. Eine weitere bedeutendere Fernsehrolle hatte er als feuriger Liebhaber von Beatrice Arthur in einer Folge von Golden Girls. Fiedlers Markenzeichen war seine für einen Mann außergewöhnlich hohe Stimme, die er vor allem in Winnie-Puuh-Filmen als Sprecher von Ferkel (im Original Piglet) – diese Rolle wurde bis zu seinem Tod nur von ihm gesprochen – einsetzte. Daneben hatte er auch Sprechrollen in anderen Zeichentrickfilmen von Walt Disney.
