Biography
Eric Stuart, the son of a criminal attorney and a modern dancer, grew up in Brooklyn. He was born October 18, 1967. He formed his first band at age 14, inspired by his music teacher. He learned to play the guitar in eighth grade, and was writing and recording songs by the tenth grade. Before graduating high school, he had recorded over 40 original songs.
After high school, Stuart worked as a production assistant and played shows in the New York City area. As his career continued, he and his band went on to open for such famous acts such as Chicago, Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Jethro Tull, and Peter Frampton.
Pokémon roles
Eric Stuart's most famous roles on Pokémon are that of Brock and James. Stuart admits that along with Gourry Gabriev from Slayers, James is his favorite character that he has played. However, he also says that he is most like Brock.
In addition to providing voices for the series, Stuart has worked as a voice director on the English dubs of both Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh!.
When 4Kids gave up their dubbing license in 2005, Eric Stuart left the series along with most of the other voice actors who worked with that company.
