Stuart M. Rosen (born June 26, 1939) is an American voice director and voice actor.
Shortly after graduating from Long Beach State, Rosen got work as a production assistant at KCET. He wrote and starred in the TV series Dusty's Treehouse from 1968 to 1980.
He has voice directed many cartoons and commercials for television, including MASK, Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling, Fraggle Rock, the first episodes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series), The Legend of Prince Valiant, Super Secret Secret Squirrel segments of 2 Stupid Dogs, Biker Mice from Mars and many more.
In 1991, The Legend of Prince Valiant made a lasting impact on animated adventure television series. With a cast of accomplished dramatic actors, the show introduced a level of maturity and complexity through their vocal performances that set the standard for all TV animation that followed.
Other such shows soon followed: Batman: The Animated Series, The Pirates of Dark Water, X-Men, Spiderman: The Animated Series and Superman: The Animated Series directed by Andrea Romano, Gordon Hunt, Dan Hennessey and Tony Pastor, and Phantom 2040 also directed by Rosen.
Phantom 2040's unique voice cast included Scott Valentine, Margot Kidder, Ron Perlman, Leah Remini, J.D. Hall, Alan Oppenheimer, Richard Lynch and Jeff Bennett; while Mark Hamill, Debbie Harry, Rob Paulsen, Paul Williams and Rosen himself had recurring roles.
Stu Rosen has also had live-action roles in Rome and The Huntress.
