Jane Tattersall is a Canadian sound editor,[1] most noted as a six-time Genie Award and Canadian Screen Award winner for Best Sound Editing.[2]

Born in England, Tattersall moved with her family to Canada in childhood, and was educated at Queen's University.[2] She worked as a researcher for TVOntario documentaries before apprenticing as a sound editor, and formed her own company, Tattersall Sound, in 1992.[2] In 2000 the company merged with Casablanca Sound & Picture, a division of Alliance Atlantis, to form Tattersall Casablanca.[3] She left her position as president of TC in 2003, returning to freelance sound editing work.[3]

Her first Genie win was for Naked Lunch, a film for which she notably had to stick her hand into a jar of cockroaches to achieve the desired hissing sound.[4]
