Lara Ingraham

My extensive background in sketch comedy gives me the ability to riff on New York, British and Southern dialects. I have a great ear!

The Inspiration: Variety shows like Carol Burnett, Benny Hill and SNL The Experience: requests to record friends' and family members' answering machine messages (remember those?!) recordings for mixed-media stage shows from sketch comedy to dance theater to Shakespeare IVR recordings for theater box offices ADR for an independent film (comedy) Up next: voices for 3 quirky cats beseiged by 1 nasty dog in an indie film... I have a B.A. in International Relations and Comparative Religion from Claremont McKenna College. I love people, have a cosmopolitan outlook and the ability to make genuine connections quickly. I've studied with voiceover greats Terri Apple, Peter Rofe and David Lawrence. With 14 years of on-stage and on-camera performance and education experience, I'm well-versed in the technical and playful aspects of showbiz and advertising. I have access to a studio with ISDN and phone patch capabilities. I'm a quick study and have a great work ethic. I love to laugh and make others laugh. I've worked as an office temp, a restaurant hostess and waitress, a cater-waiter, Licensed Real Estate Broker (in NYC) and a Licensed Massage Therapist (in LA). These varied experiences have taught me compassion and contributed to my positive, open mindset.
