## Early life and career

Fox was born in Monroeville, Pennsylvania on July 13, 1963, and grew up in Swissvale. She performed in musicals in high school, and worked at Kennywood amusement park during some of the summers. In the early 1980s, she worked for the Walt Disney Company in Orlando where she would participate in their live stage shows. She was working as a hostess at a Bennigan's Irish pub when she was asked to audition with the 1920s-themed jazz band The Cocoanut Manor Orchestra as their singer. She sang with the group for 11 years, performing songs done by singers Helen Kane and Annette Henshaw; the former was an inspiration for the Betty Boop character. In 1988, she joined the Orlando Magic's inaugural dance team, and was part of the Magic Girls for three years.
In 1991, she was cast as the official Betty Boop for Universal Studios. She moved to Los Angeles and began performing as Betty Boop at Universal Studios Hollywood, as well as on national and worldwide tours, visiting shows such as Good Morning America and The Rosie O'Donnell Show. In 1998, she voiced Betty Boop for "The Toon Lagoon Betty Boop" attraction at Universal Orlando's Islands of Adventure in addition to voicing Olive Oyl from the Popeye franchise for Popeye & Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges, a water ride in the same park. In 2012, she joined a Lancome promotion in Paris as the voice of Betty Boop in their commercials.

## Voice-over career

Fox was inspired to go into voice acting after having taken a voice-over workshop in 1990 with Sue Blu, a Los Angeles-based animation director and producer. After moving to Los Angeles, she voiced supporting and background characters for The Simpsons, mostly with kids voices and loop groups, which she did for three years. She also voiced characters for Futurama and King of the Hill.
Fox voiced several anime characters, including Sakura in Ninja Cadets; T-AI in a 2001 version of Transformers: Robots in Disguise; Kyoko in the Pioneer/Animaze dub of Akira; Paiway, the ship's nurse in Vandread, Sumomo in Bang Zoom's dub of Chobits. Maya in Burn-Up Scramble and Tachikoma in the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series, Momiji and Mina in Naruto, and Piyoko in Digi Charat. In addition, she voiced Lady Aska, a major character in the second season of Magic Knight Rayearth, a series in which she also rewrote lyrics and sang the theme songs.
In 2003, she voiced the title characters in Omishi Magical Theater Risky Safety and Ground Defense Force! Mao-chan. In his review of Mao-chan, Ryan Mathews of Anime News Network wrote that "Bang Zoom picked the perfect actress to play the lead role. [Fox], the owner of perhaps the cutest "little girl" voice in anime dub acting, is her usual adorable self as M.A.O."
In 2007, she and Lex Lang hosted a Voice Actor Boot Camp at Bang Zoom! Entertainment to help up and coming voice actors get into the business. In 2014, when Viz Media redubbed Sailor Moon and dubbed its new Sailor Moon Crystal series, Fox was chosen to voice Chibiusa.
In video games, she voiced Mistral and A-20 in the .hack video game series, Flonne in various incarnations of Disgaea and Marona in Phantom Brave. She voiced Peashy in the Hyperdimension Neptunia series.

## Personal life and other ventures

Fox is married to fellow voice actor Lex Lang. They live in Studio City, California.
