My favorite accent to do is from Brooklyn New Yawk. I also enjoy doing French accents.

Many years ago, fifteen to be exact, there was this lady (me) who loved to write stories for children and read to them in their classrooms. The children loved it when she came and she read their picks of the week and then she read hers. Every year she had a new class. One year they called her from the LA ZOO and asked her to read some books to children there and another time they called her from KidSpace Museum in Pasadena to do the same. The big question for this lady was would it be possible to use her voice and use it for a new career. Enter voice over. She went to many classes to learn the art of voice acting. Then she got on the merry go round of trying to find work. It's always spinning and she'll be very happy the day it stops. The sugue from writer to voice over actor has been wonderful. I enjoy every minute of it and I will continue to write. My two greatest passions are in my life simultaneously. I have a Bachelors Degree in Mass Communications from the University of Miami in 1975. I worked in the television industry as a Set Decorator in California for twelve years from the eighties to the nineties. I worked on Music Videos, commercials, and television shows. The Bold and the Beautiful, and the Price is Right were my two network shows. The rest of my projects were freelance and nonunion. I spent the early two thousands training to write stories for picture books. I have one publication and I sold out of my copies that were printed. Two hundred. It was a great experience to see my words become 3D in a picture book with gorgeous pictures. It's called, "Open Your Eyes". When I read my story to children I bring puppets and they become my characters (using my voice) to tell the story. I'm a monkey, a giraffe, and a rhino. It's been great fun and a comfortable success. I have access to two recording studios. Both of them are music studios and are equipped with all the necessary equipment for voice over recordings. These belong to my voice over coaches. I am a kind hearted easy person to work with. In my past endeavors there usually was a team of collaborators for brainstorming. I am very familiar with working directly with the client. They were usually part of the team. I'm also good at taking direction.
