Eileen Galindo

Eileen Galindo provides the voice for Isabella's mother, Vivian Garcia-Shapiro, in the series Phineas and Ferb. Eileen was born in the Bronx in New York and has been acting since age 14. She is allergic to latex, which she learned the hard way after putting on a pair of gloves for a role as a nurse on One Life to Live. In 2008, she was the theatrical director for the play Trailerville, which was held at the Moving Arts Theater in Los Angeles.

from her Agenda Magazine interview: I do a lot of cartoons. I play the mom on "Dora the Explorer" on Nickelodeon CBS, "Phineas and Ferb" from the directors of "Sponge Bob Square Pants" and "Hey Arnold". This one's about two little boys and their little adventures. I play a nosy next-door neighbor. It's a lot of fun. You get to use your imagination. Your voices are matched to a cartoon character, and you get to hide behind the animation.
