Terri Hawkes, the voice of Sailor Moon, is running for City Councillor in Toronto

Posted on May 4, 2026 by Adam

Fans know Terri Hawkes as the English voice of Sailor Moon from the 90s. Though she was one of three actresses to lend her voice to the character, and the second from the DiC dub of the series, she did the majority of the episodes in the first two seasons and is the voice many 90s fans in Canada and the United States associate with Sailor Moon who in that version went by the name Serena. That dub was recorded in Toronto, where Terri Hawkes lived at the time and still does today, where she is running for City Councillor in Ward 11, University Rosedale. You can check out her campaign web site and watch this video where she explains who she’s qualified.

I don’t live in Toronto, though as a Canadian living a few hours drive from there I have been to the city often throughout my life. As luck would have it the two times I visited last year I did stay at a hotel located within that particular Ward. I have no opinions on Toronto Municipal politics so I’m not going to tell you who to vote for in this election! It just seems fans may be interested to see what Terri Hawkes is up to. I wish her the best of luck in this campaign!

Terri Hawkes’s family has experience in the world of politics. Her father, Jim Hawkes, was a member of Parliament for 14 years!

As a sign of how much time has passed since the show was first dubbed, Terri Hawkes mentions that her children are now adults. She stopped voicing Sailor Moon when she was pregnant back in the 90s!

I had the pleasure of meeting Terri Hawkes at a local anime convention back in 2013. Check out the interview we did at the time!

This coming weekend Winnipeg Sailor Moon fans will get a chance to meet the voice of Sailor Moon herself, Terri Hawkes! She will be appearing as a guest at Ai-kon from July 17th to the 19th in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Terri Hawkes was the second voice of Sailor Moon, but likely the most recognisable to many fans of the original English dub having provided the voice of Sailor Moon for most of the first two seasons.

Last year at Unplugged Expo 2 Roland Parliament, voice director for the first 65 episodes of Sailor Moon and the voice of Melvin, announced that he would be releasing a book about the dubbing of the show. Sailor Moon Relections, the inside story of the original recordings of the English version of Sailor Moon, is nearing completion. In order to be published it needs pre-orders, which you can put in now by mail or through Pay Pal. Information about this pre-order can be found at Moon Chase. A hard copy of the book will be $20 for softcover and $30 for hardcover. There is also a $4.99 ebook option which does not require a pre-order.

Unplugged Expo Sailor Moon 20th Anniversary voice actor panel – Day 2

Posted on November 15, 2013 by Adam

Here’s the second of two Sailor Moon voice actor panels that were part of Unplugged Expo‘s Sailor Moon 20th Anniversary celebration. This panel was from the Sunday, October 27th, in Toronto. Saturday’s panel had more voice actors present but Sunday’s panel allowed for a more intimate experience with Ron Rubin, the voice of Artemis, Susan Roman, the voice of Sailor Jupiter, Terri Hawkes, the voice of Sailor Moon and Toby Proctor, the voice of Tuxedo Mask. The MC is me, Adam Gardner.

The panel focused on the cast’s time working in voice acting and featured a few attacks from the live action series. Though discussion of the new Sailor Moon anime was saved for the Sunday panel there were no new announcements made as no new information was available however the cast is enthusiastic to reprise their roles if given the chance and suggested fans on the Internet would have a lot of influence if they asked to see the original cast return. One such effort which I mentioned during the panel was this Facebook page which petitions to have Terri Hawkes voice Sailor Moon in the new anime. Please support this page and others if you’d like to hear your favourite voice actors in the new show.

Thanks to the Unplugged Expo staff for putting this convention together, to the Sailor Moon voice actors for making a great panel and to Kate for helping with the camera. Check out Kate’s Sailor Moon screenshots on Instagram or Twitter.

Posted on May 17, 2013 by Adam

Here’s a video “Luduc versus le doublage” (Luduc vs. Dubbing) recorded at G-Anime 2013 in Gatineau which includes an interview with Terri Hawkes, the voice of Sailor Moon from the English dub of the Sailor Moon anime. This video is primarily in French but the portions with Terri Hawkes, which includes Sailor Moon saying lines from famous movies, are in English.

Mixed in with this are two French interviews, one with Olivier Visentin, an actor who dubs French voices for English movies such as the voice of Jonah Hill’s characters and the other with Jackie Berger who is best known as the voice of Estaban from the French dub of “Les Mystérieuses Cités d’or” or “The Mysterious Cities of Gold”, an anime show that was quite popular amongst French Canadians.

Check out Luduc’s YouTube channel for more of his convention videos.

Readers may recognize the room these interviews are done in from our interview with Terri Hawkes at the same convention.
