Louise Ann Robey (born March 14, 1960) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, model, and actress.
Born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Robey was educated throughout Europe and attended the Royal Ballet School. Discovered by French photographer Jacques Henri Lartigue while sunbathing in the French Riviera, Robey began modeling and appeared in Vogue. After moving to the United States in the early 1980s, she fronted the group Louise and the Creeps. The group soon broke up and in 1984, Robey landed a record deal. She recorded an eponymous album, which yielded a hit, a cover of Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus and Tim Rice's song from the musical Chess called "One Night in Bangkok". The single peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart.
Robey had small roles in The Money Pit and Raw Deal before landing the role for which she may be best known, that of Michelle "Micki" Foster, niece of antiques dealer Lewis Vendredi, on the 1987-1990 syndicated horror series Friday the 13th: The Series, which Frank Mancuso Jr. produced. The show, filmed in Canada, ran for three seasons. Robey played a young woman who has inherited an antique shop from Lewis Vendredi (R. G. Armstrong), her estranged uncle. When it turns out the antiques in the shop are cursed by the devil, it is up to Micki, Ryan (John D. LeMay) her cousin by marriage, and family friend Jack Marshak (Chris Wiggins) to hunt down these antiques before they can kill anyone else. Robey also had a starring role in the film Play Nice.
In a post on her now defunct website dated August 17, 2008, Robey announced that she will be appearing on the DVD release of the first season of Friday the 13th: The Series. She also continues to work on music and photography projects.
