Tara Strong Height, Weight and Body Measurements

Tara Strong is reported to stand about 5 ft 2 in (157 cm), with a petite frame and a weight commonly cited around 110 lb (50 kg). As of 2026 she is 53, and these numbers come from fan and media profiles rather than any official statement.

Quick facts

A small frame, a huge voice

Her petite stature is part of the fun, because the voice is anything but small. Few performers in animation can jump from the bubbly sweetness of Bubbles to the dry deadpan of Raven in the same week. Tara has joked in interviews about how her voice has outlasted fashion cycles, and she often posts cosplay and convention photos where her compact size is obvious next to co-stars. Her style tends to lean playful: bold colours, geeky T-shirts, and costumes inspired by the characters she plays.

At about 5 ft 2 in she is a few inches under the average for women in North America, and she’s the first to laugh about it. That compact build is one reason voice casting is such a good fit for her: in a booth nobody sees your height, only hears your range. Fans meeting her at conventions often remark that they expected someone bigger, which is a nice compliment for a performer whose characters tend to be larger than life.

Early years

She grew up in Toronto and began performing young, working in commercials and on screen in Canada under her birth name, Charendoff, before moving into voice work. The move to Los Angeles opened up the American animation industry, where her range gradually made her one of the busiest voices in the business. Adopting the surname Strong after her marriage became the credit that fans now know best.

Career highlights

Her résumé reads like a cartoon hall of fame. She voiced Timmy Turner in The Fairly OddParents, Bubbles in The Powerpuff Girls, Raven in Teen Titans, and Twilight Sparkle in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. She has also voiced Harley Quinn in several DC animated projects and in video games such as the Batman: Arkham series, and she gave voice to Dil Pickles in the Rugrats universe and Gwen in Ben 10.

That list matters because of how different the characters are. Timmy is a squeaky ten-year-old boy, Raven is monotone and wry, and Twilight is anxious and bookish. Casting directors have long relied on her ability to keep each of them distinct, which is why she’s regularly named among the most prolific voice actresses working today.

Beyond voice work, she has appeared on camera in series and web projects, joined convention panels, and become a regular presence at fan events. She also runs production ventures and has been open about the realities of long-term freelance work in entertainment, including the way voice actors move from audition to audition without a guaranteed job.

Why fans love her

Part of her appeal is accessibility. She engages with fans online, shares behind-the-scenes clips from recording sessions, and tends to stay for long autograph lines at conventions. She has also lent her voice and her profile to charity fundraisers and fan-driven events, which has deepened the bond with a loyal audience that grew up with her characters and now introduces them to their own kids.

Personal life

Tara is married to Craig Strong, and the family lives in Southern California. She tends to keep family details light and focuses her public persona on work, fans and charity involvement.

Staying in shape

She has talked about fitness and healthy habits in social posts and interviews, but there is no single signature regimen. Voice work is physical in surprising ways, with long recording sessions demanding stamina and breath control, and she has pointed to rest and hydration as basics.

What fans ask

The most common questions are about her height next to co-stars and whether she really voices all of those characters herself. The answer to the second is yes, and the first is simple enough: she is petite, and she plays with it. Her social feeds regularly feature photos beside taller cast members and fans in costume, usually with a joke attached.
