Voice Description

Resonant, engaging baritone, flexible as either serious or humorous, sarcastic or sincere. I have acted in many dramatic venues, tackling roles in Shakespeare, Neil Simon, Shaw, and many others; my range is extensive. My voice is capable of subtle nuances in comedy and general narration. I read Poe's "The Raven" with suggestive darkness of expression.
