Description
Laurel Lefkow is an American actress and voice artist known for her work in English-language dubs of anime series and films, particularly those produced in the United Kingdom during the 1990s. Her career encompasses voice work for animation, video games, and audiobooks, as well as on-screen roles in film and television.
Lefkow's anime voice acting credits are primarily associated with dubs produced by Manga Entertainment UK. One of her notable early roles was as Dr. Shimuka Brodie in the Manga UK dub of Megazone 23 Part III, an original video animation from the late 1980s. She also provided the voice for the character Myra in the influential and controversial 1990s OVA series Genocyber. In this series, Myra is a doctor who appears in the second and third episodes, forming a protective bond with the young girl Elaine, who is central to the Genocyber entity.
Beyond these two key roles, Lefkow's portfolio in the medium includes a variety of other parts. She voiced the character Yamamoto in the OVA Judge and took on the roles of Faury Maya and the narrator in the Shadow Skill OVA and its sequel, Shadow Skill 2. Her work during this period also includes a small role as a bus announcement voice in the Manga Entertainment UK dub of the Space Adventure Cobra feature film. Her career in anime dubbing reflects the activity of the British voice acting community involved in localizing Japanese animation for English-speaking audiences in the era of home video.
