My Voice Experience
My first understanding of my voice’s potential came on April 13, 1990 during my internship interview at NBC. That morning, David Letterman played the role of personnel director, and when he asked me for my post-Syracuse University ambitions, I answered with the first thought that entered my mind - hockey announcer.
Letterman asked me over and over to repeat the most common hockey expression - “He shoots, he scores!” The bit later became a running gag during my internship at NBC that summer.
