Welcome to
our file on
David Holliday, who brought the first season voice of Virgil Tracy
to life for us all. While we must remain neutral in our investigation,
it is of great significance that the majority of Thunderbirds fans favor
Mr. Holliday's Virgil voice over any that came after. Very little
detail is available on David's life, but here is what we have
uncovered to date:
• Born: 4 August,
1937 in Illinois, United States
• Performed in more stage plays and
musicals than he has on television shows or movies
• Left
Thunderbirds after its first season to return to the United States
and perform on Broadway
• Has an amazing singing voice
• Worked with
Thunderbirds co-star Matt Zimmerman in the stage musical 'Carousel'
• Recommended Matt Zimmerman for the role of voicing Alan Tracy
•
After leaving Thunderbirds, lived in the United States for the
remainder of his life
• Died of cancer on 26 March, 1999 at the age
of 62
