Domestic Voice Actress: Rebecca Forstadt |
Sunday Nov. 13 at 12:00 PM in Los Angeles A (LP2)
Rebecca has been a voice over actor, well known in the anime genre for over 30 years. She has also appeared as a critically acclaimed actress on stage in Hollywood, starred in 2 motion pictures, and worked in various on camera roles in television.
However, it was her very distinctive voice that led her into the voice over arena. After 30 years she still sounds like a kid. While pounding the pavement one day, she happened upon an ad seeking an actor who could do kid voices. The ad was for a studio in Hollywood that was churning out foreign animation and live action projects dubbed in English. Many were Japanese. Rebecca’s voice was perfect for the roles of young girls and teens.
