Interview with Sumalee Montano - TFATM - 12-16-2010 12:43 PM
Please use this thread to discuss the Interview with Sumalee Montano news story on the main site.
ÂTFW2005.com have published an interview with Sumalee Montano, the voice of Arcee from Transformers Prime.
Q.1 To start with, tell us a little bit about yourself, Ms. Montano.
What is your background? How did you get into acting and voice-acting?
What roles have you starred in before?
Iâve been acting since I was a kid, but mainly as a hobby and
extra-curricular activity in high school and college. After I got my
undergraduate degree from Harvard, I became an investment banker. But
after a couple years of doing that, I realized life is too short to be
working in a career that you donât really love. So I quit and decided to
become an actress.
My first voice-over job was a radio commercial. My first on-camera job
in Hollywood was a recurring role on ER. Iâve enjoyed playing a lot of
different guest-starring roles on TV, including shows like Bones, Boston
Legal, Big Love, and most recently on a new comedy called Glory Daze.
Transformers Prime is really my first TV series where I get to play a
âstarring,â series regular role.
