## Biographical information

### Personal life

DeLisle had a difficult childhood; her mother was addicted to drugs, and she was primarily raised by her grandmother, Eva Flores Ruth, a vocalist who performed with salsa legend Tito Puente.

DeLisle was heavily into goth bands like *The Cure*, but her mother, who had become a born-again Pentecostal, set a strict rule forbidding secular music. In her late teens, she started singing old gospel tunes and entered the world of stand-up comedy on the advice of a close friend. In her comedy routine, DeLisle imitated voices particularly well and was advised to take a shot at voice acting. Her first starring role came in 1994 in the original English version of *Crayon Shin-Chan*, as the voices of characters Cosmo and Uma.

In 2002, DeLisle married musician Murry Hammond, the bassist for the Old 97's, after a few months in a long-distance relationship. They were featured in an episode of The Learning Channel program *A Wedding Story*. Their first child, Jefferson Texas "Tex" Hammond, was born on January 31, 2007, in Los Angeles, California.

### Career

Billed as a "Superstar Voice Actress" on the Anime News Network, DeLisle has played the leading role in many animated series. Harp Magazine has called Delisle "golden-voiced" and recognized her for her roles in *Fairly Oddparents*, *What's New, Scooby-Doo?*, and *Clifford the Big Red Dog*. In addition to her numerous English-speaking roles, she also speaks Japanese as the character Yumi on *Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi*. DeLisle has had voice acting roles in many computer and video games, such as *Escape from Monkey Island*, *Baldur's Gate 2*, *Tomb Raider: Anniversary*, and several *Star Wars* games. She also voices the Dark Jedi, Asajj Ventress, in *Star Wars: Clone Wars*, Therese and Jeanette (Tourette) Voerman in the *White Wolf* RPG, PC game *Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines*, Samantha Manson in *Danny Phantom*, Frankie in *Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends*, and Frida Suárez in *El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera*. DeLisle has released four music CDs, which include goth-inspired folk and Americana tunes, and a few gospel-style songs.
