Highlights
PETER K. O'CONNELL - Male Voice Over Talent. As a high school student, Peter K. O’Connell garnered strange looks from his parents as they passed by his room when he would practice his announcing skills by reading magazine advertisement copy out loud. While they might have expected to hear a record from Bruce Springsteen, Peter’s parents got Ed McMahon instead. The practice paid off for this 27+ year voice over talent from Upstate New York who has lent his voice to hundreds of commercials, narrations and broadcast imaging projects across the United States and internationally including England, Ireland, Switzerland and Canada. Peter is President of audio’connell Voice Over Talent (www.audioconnell.com), a professional voiceover service. Peter’s multi-faceted voiceover abilities have allowed him to share many vocal styles with his clients; from soft-sell to hard sell, everyman to character voices of every shape, size and species. Some of Peter O’Connell’s professional voiceover credits include productions for Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), Shell Oil, Starz Cable Channel, Time Warner Cable, New Jersey Alliance and New Jersey Tourism, J. Walter Thompson Advertising (JWT), 2K Games, Cleveland Browns, Tops Friendly Markets, Island Press Publishers, Harlequin Enterprises, First Choice Power, Pathmark Supermarkets, Crosby Stills & Nash, Fashion Outlet Mall, Junior Chamber International and the American Red Cross. Peter has also written an e-book entitled "The Voice Over Entrance Exam". The book examines the business and performance realities of becoming a voice over talent and maintaining a career among a spirited field of established professionals. That free e-book is available at www.voiceoverentranceexam.com Peter has served in leadership roles on numerous boards and has received many distinguished honors for his numerous achievements in the areas of broadcasting, sales, marketing and community service. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Radio and Television Communication from the University of Dayton (OH). A pathetic (yet dedicated) golfer, he lives in Upstate New York with his wife and children. To contact male voice talent Peter K.

Experience
As a voiceover talent, I totally get it.
Your job as a media producer is hard enough - with deadlines looming and clients screaming.
When the time comes to pick a voice talent, you simply want:
1. Someone with a great voice (everyman, announcer, inanimate object...)
2. A voice over talent who takes direction well and responds quickly
3. A voice actor who adds creativity to the process when you need it
4. A respected male voice talent who is fun to work with
In short, it’s my job as the voice talent to help make your job as the media producer easier!
My name is Peter K. O’Connell and my career as a professional voice talent began in 1982.
