Wayne Grayson (born 1974 in Brooklyn) is an American voice actor, who works on the properties of 4Kids Entertainment & Voice Box Productions.

Grayson is probably most famous for his role of Joey Wheeler ("Katsuya Jonouchi" in the English manga and Japanese versions) in the English-language version of the second series "Yu-Gi-Oh!" anime (known as "Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters" in Japan). He also provides the voice of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character Michelangelo.

Casting

On his choice of Wayne Grayson for this role, Lloyd Goldfine said: cquote|"When trying to decide who should play Michelangelo and who should play Donatello, I kept switching those parts between Sam Regal and Wayne Grayson; one day Sam would play Mike and Wayne would be Don, but then I'd hear them messing around in the recording booth, doing each other's lines, and I'd think, "Hey... that sounds really good!" and so I'd switch 'em! I couldn't make up my mind! But finally it all crystallized; Sam became Don and Wayne became Mikey."
