Andreas von der Meden

Andreas von der Meden (b. 1943) is a German voice actor who has dubbed Kermit the Frog (aka Kermit der Frosch) on Sesamstrasse, in The Great Muppet Caper, and in all specials, movies, and other projects following the death of Horst Gentzen (Kermit on Die Muppet Show). Von der Meden's identification with the role is such that the 2004 German comedy Der Wixxer, a spoof of the German Edgar Wallace mystery films of the 50s and 60s, featured der Meden as the voice of a Kermit parodym "The Frog with the Mask."

Von der Meden's extensive dub credits include supplying the voice of David Hasselhoff in most of his projects (including Knight Rider, Baywatch, and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie), Richard Pryor in Brewster's Millions, and LeVar Burton in Star Trek: The Next Generation.
