Paul Eiding played Ambassador Loquel on the seventh season Star Trek TNG episode, “Liaisons,” but if you grew up in the 80s and 90s, you know him better as Perceptor from “Transformers,” Colonel Roy Campbell in the Metal Gear Solid video game series, and Grandpa Max Tennyson in “Ben 10,” among hundreds of other voiceover roles in cartoons, anime, and games. Besides telling us about his time in Trek, Paul explains how his time in the army led him towards acting, being a clown and improv performer, what he learned from Dudley Riggs’ Brave New Workshop, and how a chance meeting with Gordon Hunt changed the course of his career and brought him into the world of animation. Plus, his time with Betty White on “The Golden Girls,” “Martial Law” with Sammo Hung, delivering the line in the 1986 Transformers movie that broke a generation of kids’ hearts, his unusual time working on the “Toxic Crusaders” cartoon, the most meaningful role he ever played, and performing with Anna Nicole Smith in “Skyscraper.
