Beatrice Margiotti is an Italian actress and voice actress, born in Rome on September 2, 1958, who has been active in the dubbing industry since the 1980s. Her voice, described as clear and youthful, has become well-known to Italian audiences through her extensive work in anime, television series, and films.
Margiotti's career is marked by a prolific output in the dubbing of animated series, particularly Japanese anime, for the Italian market. Among her most recognized roles are Ahiru, the protagonist who transforms into Princess Tutu, in the magical girl series Princess Tutu, and Nanako Misonoo in the classic drama Dear Brother. She is also fondly remembered for voicing the title character in Ransie la strega and for taking over the role of Mimì Ayuhara in the second series of the beloved volleyball anime Mimì e la nazionale di pallavolo. Her film work in the genre is equally notable, providing voices for Olga in Phoenix 2772 - Space Firebird, the narrator and Queen Lilia in Andromeda Stories, Yoko Asagiri in Leda - The Fantastic Adventure of Yohko, and Rachel in Dracula: Sovereign Of The Damned. She has also voiced characters in major franchises, such as Jericho in The Seven Deadly Sins films including Cursed By Light and Prisoners of the Sky, and Lucrezia Noin in the second Italian edition of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz. Other significant credits include Momo Koigakubo in Ghost Stories, Shannon De Pye in St. Luminous Mission High School, Jane in Nozomi in the Sun, and Emily in Kyōfu Densetsu: Kaiki! Frankenstein. In a recurring pattern, she has often taken on dual roles, serving as both a character and the narrator, as seen in Barbapapa Around the World where she voiced Barbamamma and provided the narrative voice, as well as in Andromeda Stories. Her versatility extends to iconic series like Dragon Ball, where she was the first Italian voice of Bulma and Mai, and Ranma ½, where she voiced both Kasumi Tendo and Kodachi Kuno in the second dubbing.
Beyond anime, Margiotti's career demonstrates a broad range across different media. From 1991 to 2014, she was one of the speakers for Prima Pagina, the morning news program on Canale 5, and also lent her voice to current affairs programs such as Terra!, Matrix, Chi l'ha visto?, and Quark. She was the official promo voice for the Junior TV channel and has voiced numerous characters in Western animation, including Nicole Watterson in Lo straordinario mondo di Gumball, Marta in Lupo Alberto, and various roles in series like The Mask and Baby Looney Tunes. Her live-action dubbing work includes Italian voices for actresses in popular television series, such as Kelli Williams in The Practice and Medical Investigation, and Tina Fey in Only Murders in the Building. In recent years, she has also expanded her activity to theatre, performing in various comedies. She is the aunt of fellow voice actor Massimiliano Alto.
