Don Ollis

I was hired as a co-host for a TV show before I had any formal acting training. Then I was hired to do some telephony voicework before I had any voiceover training. So I studied acting and voiceover. I have recorded some major voiceover projects for established voice talents in my ISDN equipped recording studio in Santa Barbara and have decided to pursue my own voiceover career at the urging of those who have heard me.
