Both interesting and a shame that David Ogden Stiers, who came out as gay in a March interview, says that he was repeatedly cautioned to stay in the closet if he wanted to continue getting work as a voice actor for [Disney] family films. "A lot of my income has been derived from voicing Disney and family programming," says Stiers. "What they might allow in a more known actor, they prefer not having to deal with in minor players." This is the legacy of intolerance that groups like Focus on the Family bring us.
