Barbie seems to have it all — a perfectly pink Malibu dollhouse, glamorous wardrobe, squad of best friends and a loving boyfriend. But a week later, she was called back to read for the role of the iconic doll herself. They wanted her to be a girl, a real girl. Growing up with a collection of the dolls herself, Lindbeck always viewed Barbie as a role model.
Lindbeck said she recorded most of the lines in tattered jeans and a messy bun, with a giant mug of soothing herbal Chinese tea in hand, to keep her voice at its best.
Lindbeck began to consider voice acting a viable career path in her fourth year at UCLA after a master class with voice-over actor Richard Tatum.
She auditioned for and ultimately signed with voice-over company Atlas Talent Agency, crediting her years of intensive voice and speech study at UCLA for her early success.

It was just a little over ten years ago that year-old Erica Lindbeck could be found playing with her collection of Barbies. A newcomer to the voiceover world, she beat out thousands of actors to land her coveted role as the voice of Hello Barbie , a joint venture between Mattel and Toy Talk that combines artificial intelligence and speech recognition technology so that Barbie can actually engage in conversation.
I never picked up a Southern accent because my parents didn't have one. I felt weird about that as a kid, but it proved helpful for my career. I have two younger siblings: My brother is six years younger than me and my sister is four years younger. My sister is mentally and physically disabled, she has a neuro-developmental disorder called Rhett Syndrome, which doesn't present itself until about the one-year mark, at which point there's loss of physical and mental capabilities.
She reached nine-months and then she started regressing. It was heartbreaking; it was such a difficult time. I would go to [our] barn as an escape. For five years I rode horses competitively — my horse, Dakota, and I were number-one in our circuit division.
But when I was 10 years old, Dakota fell while my trainer was riding him, and it turned out Dakota had a really horrible issue with his leg. I remember brushing him and my mom came up to me crying and said, 'I'm sorry, sweetie, but you can't ride Dakota anymore. I decided right then and there to stop riding because I didn't want to ride a different horse. And that's when I got into theater.
When it came time to apply to college, I was going to take my dad's advice and study business and do acting on the side. But my drama teacher, who I'm forever indebted to, said, 'If you want to do this, you should do it full stop. Give yourself every opportunity to succeed. It has an amazing theater program and it's difficult to get into from out of state because it's a public college, but I got accepted.
So at 18 years old, I moved to California. And I was terrified. I was never the favorite in my program. I was always the underdog. I have a thick skin now because of it. In this industry, you're getting rejected constantly. But there might be a million 'nos' then you get a 'yes. My yesses started coming. When I saw that one of my favorite anime voice actors Crispin Freeman was teaching a class I thought, I have to do this.
I wasn't very good at the beginning.
