Troy Baker

Troy Edward Baker (born April 1, 1976 in Dallas, Texas) is an American voice actor and musician who resides in Los Angeles, California. He married his wife Pamela Walworth on October 13, 2012; the two of them bore a son 6 years later.

Baker was originally the lead singer and guitarist for an indie-rock ban called Tripp Fontaine. At some point, he began doing voice overs for radio commercials in Dallas and was scouted by Christopher Sabat for Funimation's English localization of Detective Conan.

Making a name for himself within the anime community, he gradually shifted his focus on Western titles, leaving many of his old roles to be taken over by Matthew Mercer. He has since made a comeback to the medium by portraying the titular protagonist of Baki the Grappler.

Using a bass pitch to voice many of his roles, Baker can skillfully portray flawed heroic figures or unscrupulous villains. He is also quite good at handling comedic characters. His roles include Vincent Brooks in Catherine, Yuri Lowell in Tales of Vesperia, and Jin Kariya in Bleach.
