The votes have been counted, and Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt are the fans’ choice for actor and actress with geek appeal!

Nerdage ran a month-long series highlighting which actors and actresses had the most “geek appeal,” based on hits and web searches.   Then, fans were given the opportunity to vote for both actor and actress.

The winners were Lowenthal and Pratt, who, in addition to frequently working together, are also married.   They co-wrote the book “Voice-Over Voice Actor: What It’s Like Behind the Mic.”

Platt is maybe best known as the voice of Temari on the anime hit “Naruto,” but she has also portrayed superheroes Dream Girl (on “Legion of Superheroes”) and Wonder Woman (on the “DC vs. Mortal Kombat” game). She’s also appeared on “Charmed” and “Gilmore Girls.”
