Marla Kirban Voiceover
630 - 9th Avenue, #1104
New York, NY 10036

Marla Kirban graduated from Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts in 1970 with a B.A. in Theater Education and a minor in Speech. She began her career in the voice over industry - literally by doing a favor and running a voice over casting session for a friend, Charles Rosen (Charles Rosen Casting.) She discovered that not only did she help the talented actors and actresses get their “reads” right, but she was good at it and really enjoyed the medium. Ms. Kirban moved to Los Angeles shortly thereafter and ended up working for Jeff Danis at ICM for the next seven years as their In-house Voice over Director. At ICM, she worked with talent the likes of Stockard Channing, Steven Weber, Megan Mullaley (Will and Grace), Estelle Harris, Jane Lynch (Best in Show), Ana Gasteyer (SNL) and Jim Cummings (the voice of Winnie the Pooh and the Tasmanian Devil.) Five years ago, she returned to New York City to start her own voice over studio and to date she trains, directs and provides guidance for many aspiring voice over amateurs and professionals alike.

Additional Skills

A little about me;
i am a middle school history teacher and coach. I am knowledge about history as well as many other subjects. Athletics are a big part of my life: basketball, baseball and football. I fish, surf and travel nationally and internationally. I watch and observe people and nature. I constantly listen and mimic everyone and am extremely talented at this. I am a social person who enjoys going out and having a good time. I watch all types of movies from old classics to new dumb comedies. I drive a truck, play guitar and take my dog to the beach every chance I get. I can be serious and intense and as goofy and silly as any one. I hope I am a good man, I think i'm doing pretty good so far.
