Early life
Quan was born in Oakland, California to Lori and Daryl Quan, who ran a sewing machine and vacuum store in Vallejo, California.[1] She is legally blind, having been born with optic nerve hypoplasia.[1] Quan grew up in San Francisco, California.[2]
When she was ten, her father heard a radio interview with a teacher who instructed students in voice-over acting, and he immediately enrolled Dionne for lessons.[3] She obtained her first voice work at the age of 14 for television commercials[1] and acted in high school productions.[4] Quan graduated from Benicia High School in 1998.[4]
Career
Quan was cast as Kimi Watanabe in Rugrats in Paris: The Movie (2000),[5] her film debut.[6] She continued playing the role on the series itself, Rugrats,[7] Rugrats Go Wild (2003)[8] and the spinoff All Grown Up!.[9][10] Quan provided the voices of Trixie Tang in The Fairly OddParents[11] as well as Yasmin in the Bratz franchise.[4]
Due to her disability, Quan was given scripts written in Braille as opposed to standard lettering.[12][13]
