Donald Harvey Francks or Iron Buffalo (born February 28, 1932) is a Canadian actor, vocalist and jazz musician.
Francks was born and raised in Burnaby, British Columbia, a suburb of Vancouver. He once attributed his voice talent and career to free elocution lessons by Muriel Davis from age eight. He performed in vaudeville, worked as a foundryman and was involved in summer stock before moving to Toronto. During his time in Hollywood he lived in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles, California.
An avid motorcycle rider, he has a collection of 12 antique cars, mostly Model-T Ford racing cars from 1912 to 1927. He is a poet, native nations champion, author and peace activist. He supports Greenpeace and Tibet.
As a spokesman for Other Voices (Canadian TV series) in mid-1960s, he investigated a boy's murder at Saskatchewan Red Pheasant First Nation. He married and moved there with his second wife Lili Francks, named there as Red Eagle. He was adopted as a Cree, and named Iron Buffalo "strong like iron. Like the buffalo who knows where to go, is a good provider and good for his family". She is dancer and member of the Plains Cree First Nation. Since 1979, he has been living in Toronto with wife Lili and their son Rainbow Sun. His Daughter Cree Summer resides and works in Hollywood. He has two children from his first marriage, his son Trane and a daughter, Esho.

Although the live-action actors of the X-Men films have helped to define the personalities of the many mutants of the massive multiverse, there were a countless number of talented voice actors that brought those characters to life. Ironically, Australian actor Hugh Jackman plays the Canadian badass Wolverine...but not only has Logan been played by ACTUAL Canadian voice actors, his very first voice in a pilot to an X-Men animated series that was never finished, was performed with an Australian accent!
