Maxey Whitehead is an American voice actress whose English-dub work includes a role in Studio Pierrot's Tokyo Ghoul. She typically voices young boys and girls, with credits that include Alphonse Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Dende in Dragon Ball Z Kai.
Whitehead's dub work spans a wide range of English-language anime releases, and her involvement with Tokyo Ghoul falls within that same run of youth-cast performances. Casting directors have repeatedly turned to her for young boys and girls specifically because of the range she brings to those parts. Her Tokyo Ghoul credit sits alongside a catalog built almost entirely around that specialty.
