Voice Description
While Don Leslie has a signature sound that is deep, authoritative, velvety and resonant, his vocal range is extremely diverse. His is a multi-dimensional voice that allows editors a multitude of choices. A voice that weds words to emotion--almost disappearing when necessary or giving the written word the chance to soar above the mundane.

Credentials
Education
I attended the Univ of California at Berkeley and the Univ of Oregon; my major was physiological psychology. But upon arriving in New York City, I was bitten by the acting bug and spent the earliest part of my career doing theatre: Broadway, Off-B'way and Regional Theatres around the country. Film and Television followed. Then in 1990 I discovered the world of Voiceover and realized that I enjoy being in a sound studio as much as on a Broadway stage or in front of a camera.
