Kathryn Beaumont's Voice Used in Movies Alice in Wonderland and Wendy in Peter Pan

Back in 2012, my sister, Patricia Palmer (Lundquist) Peck, BHS '55 (1937-2015), told me that in high school one day, her teacher told the class to be nice to a new student. Come to find out, the new student was Kathy Beaumont, the girl who Disney used for the voice of Alice in "Alice in Wonderland" and as Wendy in "Peter Pan"!
