Michael Dobson

Michael Richard Dobson (born August 12, 1966 in Kingston, London) is a Canadian voice actor, director, and acting instructor affiliated with Ocean Studios and other talent agencies. His siblings Paul and Brian work in the same field as him. Married with 4 children, he resides in British Columbia where he owns his own voice recording studio. His co-workers at Ocean Studios refer to him as Crazy Mike.

Although Dobson lived in both England and Canada, he spent most of his high school years at Georgetown, Ontario. Due to the influence of his theater arts teacher, he came to love drama and found himself involved in various school plays. He also offered acting lessons to middle school students before enrolling in the University of Victoria.

Around that time, Dobson joined several troupes to perform on stage before doing comedy segments and commercials on the radio. He eventually moved his way up to mainstream voice acting after attending a workshop held by renowned voice director Sue Blu. Having enjoyed the experience, he went on to do many roles throughout his career, resulting in him winning multiple awards. He is also a proponent for environmental issues, particularly animal rights.

While Dobson is often assigned antagonistic roles like his brother Paul, they tend to be more emotionally fierce than sinister. He has voiced Bulk Biceps in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Kento Aoi in Beyblade Burst, and Bernhardt in Langrisser Mobile.
