Colleen Clinkenbeard (born April 13, 1980) is an American voice actress, line producer, ADR director, and script writer at Funimation/Crunchyroll who provides the voices for English versions of Japanese anime series. Having starred as Rachel Moore in the long-running detective series Case Closed, she then served as the ADR director on Fullmetal Alchemist, and would star in many other popular anime shows including as Monkey D.

Career[]
As a stage actress in Dallas, Clinkenbeard got involved in voice-over when fellow voice actress Laura Bailey brought her to Funimation for an audition. Her first voice role was in Dragon Ball GT; her first lead role was Éclair in Kiddy Grade. Midway through the Kiddy Grade series, director Justin Cook made Clinkenbeard the ADR director on the rest of the episodes. Her other major role early in her career was Rachel Moore in the detective anime show Case Closed. She would later direct along with Mike McFarland on Fullmetal Alchemist which premiered in November 2004 on Cartoon Network.
Clinkenbeard went on to provide the voices of Monkey D. Luffy in One Piece, Erza Scarlet in Fairy Tail, Riza Hawkeye in Fullmetal Alchemist, Moka Akashiya's inner personality in Rosario + Vampire and Yuko Ichihara in XxxHOLiC.
Clinkenbeard and voice actress Laura Bailey were roommates while working at FUNimation. She married Patric Carroll in 2012 and they have a son named Rhodes (born in 2014). Her sister Bonny is an ADR script writer at Funimation.
