Saffron Henderson is a Canadian voice actress and singer and the daughter of Bill Henderson of Chilliwack fame. She has voiced various characters from anime series. She is usually cast as mature and occasionally flirtatious young women, or as a child, mostly young boys.

Her well-known roles include Shenhua from Black Lagoon, Aisha from Gundam SEED, Sachiko Yagami from Death Note, and Oxnard from Hamtaro. She was also the first voice of Naruto's Kurenai Yuhi before being replaced by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn.

Saffron Henderson was replaced by Jillian Michaels as Gohan in The Ocean Group's dub of Dragonball Z. Henderson had been voicing the character from the very beginning (since 1996) but had to quit just before voice work began on the Cell Games Saga because her wedding, which took place sometime in January or February 2001, conflicted with her work schedule for the series.

In an Animerica interview, she mentioned that she was in the movies The Fly II and Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. She played Veronica Quaife, taking over the Geena Davis role, and the rocker J.J. Jarret, whom Jason Voorhees used a guitar to kill.

Saffron has also provided backing vocals on several albums, including for example Bad Company vocalist Paul Rodgers' 1999 album Electric.
