Christopher Owen Ayres (Born May 16, 1965 in Richmond, Virginia) is an American voice actor best-known for voicing anime characters. Chris is the lesser-known brother of Greg Ayres. Unlike Greg though, Chris has had more experience in terms of directing and writing and has even directed theatre productions.
Chris Ayres is recognized not only for his dub work in popular anime, but also for his famous combat cosplay workshop he teaches at anime conventions.
Occasionally his surname is listed as Ayers instead of Ayres, however this spelling is incorrect as his legal name is "Christopher Ayres".
