To me, that's what it is all about." Strong has been nominated five times for Annie Awards. In 2013, Strong won the Shorty Award for "Best Actress" for her use of social media. The Behind the Voice Actors website selected her for a BTVA Voice Acting Award for Voice Actress of the Year for 2013, having nominated her for 2011 and 2012. Strong starred in the Canadian series Pretty Hard Cases as Tiggy Sullivan, the head of a drug trafficking gang. She also voices Miss Minutes in the live-action Marvel Cinematic Universe series Loki. Dismissal from Boxtown cast After the 2023 Israel–Hamas war began, Strong stated that Hamas had "brainwashed the western world" to support terrorism. She also stated that people can "help Palestine without supporting terrorism" and expressed support for Israel. Strong's posts on Twitter and her likes on others' posts relating to the war on the social network, particularly her opinions on the government of Israel's bombing of the Gaza Strip, garnered controversy and criticism, which led independent animation studio Bandit Mill Animation to remove her from the production of their upcoming series Boxtown and recast a role for a character she would have voiced. They explained on their official Twitter page that "this decision was due to a trend among Tara's recent online activity, including posts that promote controversial messages regarding the peoples of Palestine currently being affected by the ongoing Israel-Palestine crisis." After her removal, Strong claimed that she was "fired for being Jewish". This was denied by a co-writer of Boxtown's pilot, Spencer Rothbell, who pointed out that several Boxtown cast and crew members are Jewish, including himself and voice actor Alex Hirsch, the latter whom is voicing a lead character in the series. Personal life In 1999, Strong met U.S. real estate agent and former actor Craig Strong. The couple married on May 14, 2000, and have two sons named Sammy (b. February 2002) and Aden (b. August 2004). They lived in Los Angeles and were formerly the owners of VoiceStarz, an online company that taught people how to get into the voice-over business. On July 24, 2019, she filed for divorce, which was finalized on January 5, 2022. That same year, she start.... Discover the Tara Sullivan popular books.
