At the age of 19, LaMarche took his high school act to an open mic night in New York,performing to a reaction in which, as he describes, "they just totally ignored me".<ref>[http://www.quickstopentertainment.com/?p=1153&page=1 Interview with Quick Stop Entertainment (questions 19-21)]</ref> Three years later, at the age of 22, Maurice moved straight to Los Angeles to further his stand up career. This move, LaMarche says, would always be something he regretted doing instead of moving to New York.

Maurice's first entrance into the voiceover industry was in [[1979]] in ''Easter Fever'' and ''Take Me Up To The Ballgame'', two Canadian films.<ref>[http://www.quickstopentertainment.com/?p=1153&page=2 Interview with Quick Stop Entertainment (2nd page, Questions 33 and 39]</ref> LaMarche didn't venture into ''voiceover'' acting again until years later as a part time job when he was doing standup.

Maurice LaMarche began on ''Inspector Gadget'' and went on to ''Dennis the Menace'', ''Popeye and Son'' and ''The Real Ghostbusters''. After ''The Real Ghostbusters'', LaMarche became a regular mainstay of the voiceover industry appearing in such shows as ''Talespin'', ''Tiny Toon Adventures'', ''GI Joe'', ''Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: The Animated Series'', ''Taz-Mania'', ''Where's Waldo'', ''The Little Mermaid'', ''Batman: The Animated Series'', and ''Bonkers'' before landing perhaps his most recognized role in 1993 as [[Wikipedia:Pinky and the Brain#The Brain|The Brain]] on ''Animaniacs'' (and later its spin-off show ''Pinky and the Brain''). The stretch of two years after this saw LaMarche portray characters in such shows as ''Duckman'', ''Hey Arnold!'', ''Queer Duck'', ''King of the Hill'', and ''The Chimp Channel''. It was at this time, 1999, that Maurice LaMarche began work on ''[[Futurama]]''. Since ''Futurama'' LaMarche has continued to work steadily in television, including guest roles on ''The Simpsons''.
