School Life and Theatrical Interest

Deanna was interested in dance for most of her childhood, only being introduced to theatre in high school when she decided to audition for a one act play written by another student. Deanna was then approached by the drama teacher and was persuaded to sign up for her class. Aside from dance and her newfound love of theatre, Deanna was involved in choir, and enjoyed school as a whole. After taking an advanced drama class in her senior year, Deanna graduated in 1999 and joined the theater department at Cornish College of the Arts in the fall, receiving her degree in acting in the spring of 2003. Ironically, her first job had nothing to do with neither acting nor dance: she answered the office telephone and filed papers for her grandparents.

Princess Daisy

Deanna got into playing Daisy after graduating from Cornish. She worked with an agent in Seattle, Washington when she auditioned for the voice of a young golf enthusiast. Deanna did not get the part of the golf enthusiast, but she was invited to play the part of Daisy. Deanna has a hook she uses to get back into the voice before recording, and she tends to get a little physical in the sound booth. Deanna has commented that it is a lot of fun, and that she loves playing Daisy. Deanna has also said Daisy is louder and more outspoken than Peach. Daisy's personality shines through in the Mario Strikers series, and Deanna enjoys the Mario Strikers games for that reason. Deanna has said that Daisy has quite the fan base, and that players may see more of her in the future.

Misc. Portrayals

Aside from Princess Daisy, Deanna also portrayed Baby Daisy in her debut of Mario Kart Wii. Deanna has provided voices for various minor characters throughout the Mario series as well. In Super Mario Sunshine, Deanna voices all female Piantas and the Pianta Judge. Deanna voiced White Mage, a 3rd Party Square Enix character, in Mario Hoops 3 on 3. Deanna Mustard has been providing Daisy's voice for more than half a decade, and continues to do so.
