Lenore Elizabeth Zann (born 22 November 1959 in Sydney, Australia) is an Australian-born Canadian actress who has given live and voice-only performances. She is best known for providing the voice of Rogue in X-Men: The Animated Series, but has also appeared in many other cartoons and has also had on-camera roles in live-action works like Happy Birthday to Me and The L Word.
She also holds the title of being the voice artist with the most cross-regional work under her belt, besting Michael Sinterniklaas and Carrie Savage. In addition to being fairly active in both the Toronto and Vancouver voice-acting pools, she also did voice work in Los Angeles-based studios and even provided some voicework for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003) and WordWorld, which both had a New York City-based voice cast.
She became involved in Canadian Politics from Nova Scotia in 2009. Between 2019 and 2021, she served in Canada's House of Commons as a Liberal Member of Parliament for the Cumberland—Colchester federal electoral district (winning after the retirement of Bill Casey, who had represented the same district as a Progressive Conservative, modern Conservative, independent, and finally as a Liberal). She also served as a Nova Scotia New Democratic Member of the Legislative Assembly for the Truro-Bible Hill electoral district (later Truro-Bible Hill-Millbrook-Salmon River from 2013) in the Nova Scotia House of Assembly from 2009 until 2019. She stopped identifying as a provincial New Democrat in June 2019 and sat as an independent in the provincial legislature until that September, when she resigned to focus on her federal campaign. In the 2021 Canadian federal elections, she lost to Stephen Ellis.
As of early 2024, Lenore has resumed her acting career with her job as Rogue in X-Men '97.
