First voicing the character in 1961, Bennett would play Cindy for nearly three decades, continuing to reprise the role in other Yogi Bear movies and spin-off series, such as 1964’s Hey There, It’s Yogi Bear! movie and 1988’s The New Yogi Bear Show reboot series.
More sad news rolls in this week as Julie Bennett, the veteran voice actress best known for her role as Cindy Bear in the classic Yogi Bear cartoons, has reportedly passed away.
Her most well-known character is Yogi’s love interest, Cindy Bear, in Hanna-Barbera’s The Yogi Bear Show cartoon.
If you watched any Yogi Bear cartoons as a kid, you’d certainly have to remember Bennett’s distinctive voice for Cindy.
