About Jim
A professional voice, famous for impressions of Pres. Bush, John Kerry, Clinton, Swartzeneggar and others in the popular animated shorts, I also do a number of other celebrity impressions and dead-on sound alikes. But it is for my natural, real, warm man on the street sound that I have done the most work for TV and radio.
I also do a multitude of character voices for animation and audiobooks. For the Tonight Show and Dave Letterman, I am called upon to do Dick Cheney, Morgan Freeman, Al Gore, and various others in the news. For Honda, I do a version of Napoleon Dynamite. For Pacificare, an HMO, I recreated the voice of Fred Mertz to accompany a digital reworking of I Love Lucy. Whatever is needed.
I have the ability to sound real and non-announcery, or to color my voice in many ways to help get the message across.
I also am always ready to create spots thru improv, making voiceover scripts live and on air, after decades of practice with campaigns for supermarkets, banks, long-distance/internet providers, etc. Let me interview your customers, and you will have a lot of useable material to choose from.

I studied voiceovers with a guy in New York, the voice of Nabisco for a LONG time, Mr. Harlan Rector. The rest I really got on the job. It didn't hurt that I grew up in a professional acting household; my mom is Golden Globe and Emmy nominee, actress Marion Ross. Rode mic, ProTools. Improv, improv, improv. Impressions. Improv. Accents/dialects. Did I mention improv?
