"Voice Actor...." ACTRESS. Or maybe English is not the first language of the writer?

"Actor" is proper English even when referring to female performers.

"Actress" is actually controversial: see e.g. this article for some background information.

Quote:
Dating back to the early 1700s, the term “actress” first emerged to separate men and women in a male-dominated profession. But as society continues to confront and expand upon gender norms, many are calling for an end to divisive vocabulary.
