Biography
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Strassman enjoyed acting at a young age, and was involved in school plays. When Strassman was 20, she had moved to France to study psychology and theatre at Conservatoire National Superieur d’Art Dramatique in Paris.[4] In an interview with Slink FM, she said she picked psychology as a ways to earn a living in case theatre did not pan out. While there, she saw an advertisement calling for actors who could speak English. She got an apprenticeship with Studio VO/VF where she trained as a dialect coach. After a year, she was offered a paid position where she trained older French actors on how to act in English. She also taught kids, where she was recruited by two women who produced a magazine called Hi-Kids which would produce audio cassettes. It was there where she started doing voice-over. She would later do French and English dubs, and got into video game voice-over.[4][5] She provided voice over work in French for Air France, Euro-star, Disneyland Paris, and for audio tours of The Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay. As a dialect coach, she worked with Lancôme advertising.[6]
