Not mentioned in that article, but he was also the voice of King Triton, Ariel's father, in Little Mermaid, which resurrected Disney animation.

and I must use the opportunity to flog the great CBS '60s sitcom He & She, which you can find on YouTube. Ahead of its time, with the sort of sophisticated writing that would become a CBS hallmark in the '70s with MTM and Newhart (some of the same writers, actually). Mars played a fireman whose station was across the street from the main characters (Richard Benjamin & Paula Prentiss).
