Born on December 7, 1966, in Kanagawa Prefecture, she began her entertainment career in the late 1970s and is affiliated with the talent agency Horipro.

Itou voiced the main character, Bonolon, in the children's anime television series Mori no Senshi Bonolon. The series aired from 2007 to 2008 and follows the adventures of a large, orange, nine-year-old warrior who emerges from a great oak tree to help those in need.

Aside from these specific credits, a broader pattern of recurring collaborations with particular anime directors or studios is not documented in readily available sources. Itou's most prominent and consistent work has been in live-action, where she is known for her roles in dramas such as the Nurse no Oshigoto series and as a heroic mentor character Miki Masaki in the Super Sentai series Juken Sentai Gekiranger.
