2006 & 2007 NY EMMY AWARD NOMINEE Kathleen France is a very fancy, yet down to earth, relatable woman, who was born in Florida, and grew up in Colorado. An inquisitive and creative child, she would “steal” her Mother’s thick bracelets and become Wonder Woman – deflecting bullets, stealthily sneaking up on people before taking them down, or saving them from uncertain peril! Now, she has her own bracelets. Kathleen went to college on an oboe scholarship, and has loved music from the second she was born. She attended the University of Northern Colorado, and double majored in both Musical Theatre and Business with an emphasis in Computer Information Systems – before the internet existed! There was no social media when she was in school, which has made her very thankful over the years. Her first job was tutoring algebra to her peers in junior high. She has held many positions at various types of businesses, so she probably knows something about your good or service! She used to freeze people’s fat off for a living at a Manhattan Med-Spa, worked in the radiology department of the local hospital, for the water company, was a maid, a bartender & waitress, did child care, worked at a gym, she was a New York Real Estate Agent, she worked with a marketing company who made billboards, she was a singer and dancer in Japan and around the world, she was a gymnast, was on the dive team, the softball team, in fact, Kathleen can do almost anything! Although she grew up as a gymnast and dancer and loves Bikram Hot Yoga, ironically, she is not at all flexible. She moved to New York to be a musical theatre performer on Broadway. She was cast as the best friend, bad girl, or comic relief character…but after doing Mazeppa in GYPSY three times and Fraulein Kost in Cabaret, Kathleen says she is very often type cast to portray “ladies of the night”. In her free time, when she’s not working at being extremely sexy, saying awesome things in incredible ways, or coming to her friend's rescue, she spends time with the love of her life – her French Bulldog, named Newton. In 2020, her life changed with the COVID-19 pandemic. Her quarantine started much like Megan Mullally’s character Karen on Will & Grace – sleeping, eating, day drinking, and avoiding all responsibilities of daily life. Then one day, she went to work building her home voiceover studio, and could connect with people once again via Source Connect Standard, and do directed sessions through phone patches with Skype or Zoom. She has a Sennheiser MKH-416 microphone and a Scarlett Focusrite interface. She uses Adobe Audition to record. Her vocal coaches describe her voice as warm, luxurious, rich, smooth, sultry, smokey, conversational, wry, dry, playful. Kathleen France not only loves voiceovers, she will treat your project like her own. She is reliable, knowledgable, and professional. What can’t she do, you might ask? She cannot speak French!
