Shortly after graduating from Long Beach State, Rosen got work as a production assistant at KCET. He wrote and starred in the TV series Dusty's Treehouse from 1968 to 1980.
He has voice directed many cartoons and commercials for television, including MASK, Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling, Fraggle Rock, the first episodes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 TV series), The Legend of Prince Valiant, Super Secret Secret Squirrel segments of 2 Stupid Dogs, Biker Mice from Mars and many more.
In 1991, The Legend of Prince Valiant made a lasting impact on animated adventure television series. With a cast of accomplished dramatic actors, the show introduced a level of maturity and complexity through their vocal performances that set the standard for all TV animation that followed.
