Dino Andrade

Dino S. Andrade, born on September 16, 1963, is a renowned American voice actor with an extensive career in video games and animated projects. He hails from San Bernardino, California and was born to Mexican parents, José Roberto Andrade and Gloria Esther Andrade. Dino's love for science fiction, horror, and fantasy genres constitutes an inherent part of his personality and professional choices. He famously quoted, "I was that guy in acting class that, while everyone was reading Mamet and O'Neill, I was reading Batman comics." Having trained with actors Mindy Sterling and Julia Sweeney at the Groundlings, Dino's voice over work began with the 1985 movie 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun.' In addition to his voice acting career, Andrade is recognised as the creator, owner and operator of the geek dating/community website SoulGeek.com, citing his personal interests that influenced the creation of this platform. Already with an impressive array of roles in the World of Warcraft series and other important video games, he has made a crucial impact on the video game industry. His career reveals a shift from acting to independent filmmaking retreat around the early 1990s, though he later returned to voice acting around 2002. On a personal front, Dino was married to voice actress Mary Kay Bergman until her tragic death due to mental illness. Post her death, Andrade has been actively raising mental health awareness through the Mary Kay Bergman Project, a mental health outreach program aiming to help artists and entertainers.
