Dawson in the 1986 Disney animated film The Great Mouse Detective and the Sultan in Disney's Aladdin, taking over for Douglas Seale in the two direct-to-video sequels The Return of Jafar and Aladdin and the King of Thieves as well as the TV show. Bettin also hosted The Storyteller, a children's show on Chicago television in the late 1950s.
