Voice Description

I actually have not done "voiceovers" but I worked in local radio as the news/sports director for 22 years, 1972-1994. Listeners describe my voice as unique...deep, clear. I was referred to by the public as "The Voice of Seneca County." In fact, I still am, 15 years after getting out of local radio.
I always make an effort to enunciate distinctly. I have good diction and I care about getting the pronunciations correct.

My Voice Experience

I spent 22 years in small town radio, most of it as a news/sports director. Over the years, the public began applying the station's slogan, "The Voice of Seneca County" to me personally. Much to the station manager's chagrin. It's been 15 years since I was on local radio and people still refer to me that way. Each year I am asked to do the public address announcing for a local college football team and several high school sporting events and the feedback I get from out of town visitors is that my talent is an asset to those events.
My voice is deep, not quite Barry White, but not far from John Wayne. I am conscientious about pronunciation and enunciation.
