Kevin Conroy, the voice actor behind DC Comic's Batman, passed away in November of 2022 after a battle with cancer.

Conroy was born on November 30, 1955 in Westbury, New York. He attended Julliard School's drama division, studying under actor and director John Houseman. His roommate at Julliard School was Robin Williams. After graduating from Julliard in 1978, Conroy toured with Houseman's performing group, The Acting Company, and the following year he went on the national tour of Ira Levin's Deathtrap.

In 1980, after playing Jerry Grove in the soap opera Another World, Conroy moved to California to pursue work in television. Rather, he joined the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, where he performed in Hamlet and A Midsummer Night's Dream. Until 1985, he acted in a number of Broadway productions.

In 1985, Conroy transitioned back to television and had roles on Search for Tomorrow, Dynasty, Ohara, Tour of Duty, Cheers, Matlock, and Murphy Brown.

Perhaps what Conroy was most famous for was his voice acting roles, namely his starring role in Batman: The Animated Series. He continued to voice Batman in a number of animated spin-offs, theatrical films, direct-to-video films, and video games.

As part of DC Comics' 2022 Pride anthology, Conroy wrote "Finding Batman," a story that recounted his life and experiences as a gay man. At the time of his death, Conroy was married to Vaughn C. Williams.
