Marti Kerton

American-Bronx, British, pidgeon/slang local Hawaiian

I started out in radio broadcasting in Hawaii, became production director of a rock station, then got a job at an advertising agency where we churned out hundreds of television and radio ads mostly for furniture retailers and auto dealerships across the US. Since I was the resident female voice talent, I was called upon to be the voice actor for all the spots as well as the on-camera talent spokesperson for a few furniture retail stores. As Senior Copywriter for the agency, I wrote, produced and directed television and radio ads that featured female and male voice actors. I have directed hundred of television spots and was the primary casting director for most of these commercials. I have over 20 + years of voice acting experience, after having worked extensively in radio broadcasting and advertising. Additionally, I have been a working musician (singer) for that amount of time or longer, performing with several different rock bands in Hawaii and recording two albums. I am a member of NARAS and have won two Pele awards and one Clio award for a :30 second radio ad. I can also provide copywriting services, and creative services such as singing for jingles and/or backup musical accompaniment. Can speak Bahasa Indonesian. Play violin. Can fake a pretty good French and British accent.
