Career edit

Musick’s first role was in the 1981 film The Loch Ness Horror. She played a number of cartoon characters, such as Snappy Smurfling in The Smurfs and Harold Frumpkin in Rugrats.

As Tony Toponi edit

While casting for Don Bluth’s film An American Tail, Musick was one of the women chosen to play Tony Toponi, becoming one of her well-known works. She based his voice on a friend she knew from grade school.[2] In the early 1990s, Musick was unable to recast as Tony following her then-current responsibility of her daughter Mae Whitman, who was just born in 1988,[3] causing the use of her character to be limited in the first sequel and completely unused in Fievel's American Tails until the direct-to-video sequels in the late 1990s.

Personal life edit

Musick married personal manager and set construction coordinator Jeff Whitman in 1983.[1] They have one daughter, actress and singer Mae Whitman.[4][3]
