Tropes and trivia:

  • Acting for Two: As you can probably tell from looking at her credits. It got especially bad in the S season of Sailor Moon, where she not only had the meaty role of Hotaru, but was also tasked with voicing EVERY female member of the Death Busters! The dub directors seemed to realize this, as there was more of an effort to distribute the roles more evenly among the cast members for the rest of the show.
  • Creator Backlash: She didn't like working on Saint Seiya because of the show's graphic and gory violence.
  • Creator's Favorite: She had a special fondness for Sailor Moon's Hotaru.
  • Dawson Casting: She was already in her 60's when she dubbed Sailor Moon and Saint Seiya, and yet she voiced several major characters who were teenagers or younger.
  • She's a Man in Japan: She voiced Andromeda Shun for the first 21 episodes of Saint Seiya because the dub directors thought he was supposed to be a girl. After realizing the mistake, they switched to Marco Felgueiras, but sadly never redubbed the previous episodes.
