Candi Milo is an American voice actress and singer born January 21, 1966. She's best known for voicing a huge roster of animated characters, often bringing thick Latino accents to the roles. On the Disney side, she's voiced Jacobo on The Replacements, Coco and Madame Foster on Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and Irma Lair on W.I.T.C.H. She also plays Maya Santos on Maya & Miguel—where she actually speaks fluent Spanish—and has done everything from the punk-rocker Ophelia Ramírez on Juniper Lee to Zadavia in Loonatics Unleashed and Nora Wakeman on My Life as a Teenage Robot. She's the voice of Nick Dean on The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and has voiced Cheese, the imaginary friend everyone remembers from Foster's Home.
Early on, Milo replaced Christine Cavanaugh as Dexter in Dexter's Laboratory starting in 2001 after Cavanaugh left the industry. Before that, she'd voiced Sweetie Pie on Tiny Toons and has a long list of other credits including Snap from ChalkZone, The Flea on Mucha Lucha, and Astro Boy in the 2003 U.S. version. When it comes to her craft, she's said that the character artwork basically speaks to her—she focuses on giving each character "a full life" rather than just reading lines.
Milo grew up in San Jose, California, and went to Presentation High School. Her father Tony was a child actor, and she followed a similar path, working theme park shows at Disneyland by age sixteen. She appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson with "The Mighty Carson Art Players" and had small movie roles before stumbling into voice acting almost by accident while feeding lines on Ralph Bakshi's Cool World. She ended up playing multiple characters in that film, including the animated waitress Lonette and a crossdressing goon named Bob.
She's a single mother living in the Los Angeles area with her daughter.
