Lenore Zann (born November 22, 1959 in Sydney, Australia) is a politician as well as a screen, television, stage, and voice actress who has appeared in numerous television shows and films. As an actress, Zann is perhaps best known for providing the voice of Rogue on the 1992 animated television adaptation of the X-Men comic book series.
Zann migrated with her parents to Nova Scotia, Canada in 1968, and later attended Cobequid Educational Centre, a high in Truro, Nova Scotia which was then notable for its student musical productions. Zann attended York University in Toronto for her post-secondary education, studying Drama, Fine Arts, and Political Science. Zann moved back to her hometown of Truro in 2008 while still retaining apartments in New York City, Vancouver, and Toronto.[1]
In September 2008, Zann announced her commitment to restore a former academic building in downtown Truro, the Provincial Normal College, into a cultural centre.[2]
On April 8, 2009 the Nova Scotia New Democratic Party announced that Zann would be the party's candidate in the electoral district of Truro-Bible Hill. On the same day, an employee of the Liberal Party leaked a topless photo of her to the media from her appearance in The L Word.[3] On June 9, 2009, she won the seat in the general election.[4]
Zann is the Ministerial Assistant for the Department of Tourism, Culture, and Heritage.[5]
