I am the voice for READER'S DIGEST at North Texas Radio for the Blind. I have read for, hosted and co-hosted, programming for THE ECONOMIST, the British News Magazine and for THE DALLAS MORNING NEW/FORT WORTH STAR TELEGRAM on North Texas Radio for the Blind both in the "live" studio and the sound booth.
In addition I helped produce and present a Valentine's Day broadcast for "The Eyes of North Texas" based upon my great-grandparents' love letters during the Civil War.
I have also recorded Audio Books for the Blind. A Radio Theater production is in the works as well.
In the past I have recorded jingles for Irby Chevrolet, PSA's for the Chinese Golden Acrobats and Plaza Theater as well as numerous Radio Spots and TV Voice Overs for Bill Fegan Attractions, back in the day.

WadjetEye Games--Dave Gilbert
Marcus was great! He was very professional and was willing to do whatever it took to make his voicework sound the best it could. While I am normally leery of working with voice actors online, Marcus did not disappoint.
