Today we celebrate...
Terence McGovern at his 68th birthday (born 1942)

Terry McGovern was born in California, USA and did the voice of stormtroopers in A New Hope. He was one of four uncredited voice-over artists to do the voices for stormtroopers.

Terry McGovern had worked with George Lucas earlier with the THX-1138. It was then he made a mistake and come up with an excuse about running over a "wookiee back there." George Lucas never forgot the word a used it several years later in the Star Wars.
