About Rick
I have done a wide range of things, mostly in the commercial market. My commercial demo reel will show wry humor, energetic characters, and straight announcers. On a smaller scale, I have done industrial/educational video narrations with a lot of medical and techological terminology. I have read to picture, both for narration and ADR. I have done animated characters for commercials and product videos.

- Experience, training, and equipmentMost of my voice work is in the realm of friendly announcer, or guy next door character. I also have done quite a few things where I play an announcer who is actually a character--perhaps interviewing someone in a scripted, humorous way. I have been told and have received work because my characters are believable and do not sound like they are being read. Conversational humor is one of my favorite things to perform. I have been in more spots than I can remember, but some of them have been for: McDonalds, Dunkin' Donuts, Parker Brothers, AutoNation, Connecticut Lottery, The Boston Herald, Fallon Health Care, Pedialyte, Marshalls, Jiffy Lube, Bank Boston (now defunct), Top Flite, The Portland Pirates, 600lb Gorilla Cookies, Arbella Insurnace, Tufts Health Care, CeltiCare, Papa Gino's and a bunch of other things. - BA in Communications from Wheaton College, Wheaton, IL - Worked in radio from 1972-1976. - Worked location sound on film crews from 1976-1980 - Worked at Universal Recording in Chicago in the commercial Film Mixing Dept. from 1980-1986. - Have worked in commercial post production and radio production since 1980 at various studios around the country to the present day at my own studio, Burning Bridge in Boston Massachusetts. - Have Clio Awards, Hatch Awards, NEBA Awards, Radio Mercury Award, London International Award, Advertising Age Best of Broadcast Award. - Nominated for an Oscar as part of the team that worked on an animated short for Encyclopedia Britannica, sometime in the 80's.
