Biography


Born in Florence to Umberto Turi and Giulia Ragni, Turi was considered to be an important figure in Italian dubbing. At an early age, Turi visited many theatres across Italy with his parents before later moving to Rome. He felt a great desire to perform on stage during those visits. During the outbreak of World War II, Turi served at the airport in Elmas, Sardinia. When it was bombarded by American forces, Turi was seriously injured, resulting in his leg being amputated. As a result, he had to give up his dreams as a theatre actor.

Nevertheless, Turi pursued an acting career in film, television and radio, acting in over six films and starring in many television productions. Despite his inability to make a stage appearance, he served as the voice of God in the 1973 musical comedy Aggiungi un posto a tavola. His voice was then re-recorded for later performances even after his death.

Turi was more successful as a voice dubber.[2][3] He was the founder of the dubbing society SEDIF and he made frequent collaborations with other dubbers including Giuseppe Rinaldi, Wanda Tettoni, Oreste Lionello, Gianfranco Bellini and Emilio Cigoli.[4] Turi often provided the Italian voices of Walter Matthau, Lee Marvin, Christopher Lee, Telly Savalas, Lee Van Cleef, John Carradine, Lionel Jeffries, Charlton Heston, Sidney Poitier, Livio Lorenzon and Arthur Kennedy in most of their movies. In Turi's animated roles, he voiced Jasper in the Italian version of One Hundred and One Dalmatians as well as Edgar in the Italian version of The Aristocats.


Death


Turi died in Rome on April 5, 1991 just one month before his 71st birthday. He was laid to rest in the Campo Verano. Turi's family members were given important positions within the dubbing company which he founded.
