Hedy Burress

Hedy Burress (born October 3, 1973) is an American actress. She was born Heather Burress in Edwardsville, Illinois. She attended Milikin University in Decatur, Illinois. She relocated to Los Angeles, California, in 1995. She has acted in many television programs and motion pictures since 1996.

Burress is known by video game players as the English voice actor of Yuna in the PlayStation 2 games Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2. Her Yuna performance in Final Fantasy X is controversial and considered by some players to be grating. She has been accused of synchronizing Yuna's CG lips, which were programmed to speak Japanese, not English. Several gamers believe that Burress did better in Final Fantasy X-2 than she did in Final Fantasy X, and believed that she took voice lessons between the two projects. She is also slated to reprise the role of Yuna in the fortcoming sequel to Kingdom Hearts.

Burress auditioned for the role of Dorothy Wheeler in the motion picture Valentine, but that role was handed over to Jessica Capshaw. However, director Jamie Blanks still wanted Burress to star in the motion picture. During the meeting, they looked at each other in the eye and both said, "Ruthie", resulting in Burress playing as Ruthie Walker.
