Biography:
Kenneth W. "Kenny" James is an American voice actor for Bowser. His debut was in Super Mario Strikers, where he voiced Bowser and the Super Team and has voiced Bowser regularly since Super Mario Galaxy. Despite this, Scott Burns' (James' predecessor) voice was still heard in subsequent series titles such as Mario Strikers Charged, Mario Party DS, Mario Super Sluggers and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.
In 2009, James returned to voice Bowser in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In 2010, James continued to voice Bowser in Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Mario Sports Mix. As of now, he is the only voice actor of Bowser and continues to voice the character, as well as Dry Bowser (as of Mario Kart Wii), Paper Bowser, Mini Bowser, Dark Bowser, and Dreamy Bowser.
