My Take

Voice work fascinates me because the face disappears and only the craft remains, and Ali Hillis is a master of it. As Liara in Mass Effect, Lightning in Final Fantasy XIII, and Palutena in Kid Icarus: Uprising, she shaped characters that a generation of gamers feel they actually know. I find it telling that a Huntington Beach native went east to East Carolina University before building a career spanning stage, television, film and games. That versatility is the mark of a working professional, not a celebrity. Plenty of players have been moved to tears by her voice without ever learning her name, and I think that anonymity is its own kind of artistry.
