My love of talking came to me "honest" as they say here in the South! I come from a family, indeed a city, of talkers! I was born in Liverpool England and I once told John Lennon that if the group was really serious about "making it big" they should consider a different name as, in my opinion "Beatles" was a bit too yucky!! I said I like to talk not that what I say is always smart!! I first became interested in doing voice work after being told on countless occasions, how pleasant my voice is and after becoming a fan of audio books. While I did do a voice over in an independent feature film in which I was also one of the leads, my experience has mostly been as a volunteer for the Talking Library here in Nashville. This is a service for blind and visually impaired listeners. I read the Sunday newspaper live and also record books for later presentation. I have pre-recorded fiction for young people and adults, magazine articles and also non-fiction.
