James Hadley Snyder, also credited as Dan Green or Jay Snyder, is an American voice actor, voice director and script adapter who has done voice work for the Sonic the Hedgehog series.

Voice acting career

A while prior to working at 4Kids Entertainment, he worked on two adult animes.

Snyder's first work for the Sonic series was doing voice work for the English dub of the Sonic X anime. After that, he went on to do voice work for the Sonic games. However, in 2010, with the switch in voice actors, Travis Willingham and Keith Silverstein took over his main voice roles in the Sonic games.

On 25 November 2011, Snyder lost his wife, Michal, during childbirth to twins. The voice actor of Dr. Eggman, Mike Pollock, to help support Snyder, set up a website appealing to the fans of Snyder's work for donations to help him with his new children.
