Description
About Craig

Hi, I’m a UK-based American / British Voice Actor. I grew-up on the East Coast of the US and have lived most of my adult life here, in the UK, with extended periods in France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Spain – to name just a few. I’m know for my light, youthful tone and Slightly British, Mildly American, Mid-Atlantic or Trans-Atlantic accent. I’ve recorded Young Adult, Children’s, Sci-Fi / Fantasy, Historical and Contemporary Fiction, Thrillers, Horror, Spoken Word, Romance, Erotica and Non-Fiction titles. My voice has also been used by major brands, eLearning developers, video games, audio drama and docum ... more entary film producers all around the world. I started life as a singer, dancer and actor, then, decided to pursue a career in international management consulting – living and working in over 75 countries before settling here in the UK – and 'coming home' to acting via voiceover and audiobook narration. Because of my early musical training, language training and well-travelled background, I have a real love of languages, accents and dialects. I’m comfortable narrating passages in French, German and Italian – as well as both standard American and British English, of course. I can also perform in a range of regional American and European accents and enjoy the challenge of creating memorable characters while telling engaging, entertaining stories – no matter the genre. I’ve worked publishers, with both large and small, including: Bloomsbury Publishing, Findaway Voices/Spotify, Spoken Realms, Journalstone Publishing, Audible Studios, Replay Publishing, Hodder & Stoughton, John Murray, 2nd Empire Media, Spectrum Audiobooks, ProAudio Voices, Bookouture and Hachette. I maintain a professional studio at my home in the English Countryside and live within easy reach of studios in central London. I’m always happy to record custom samples, so please don’t hesitate to contact me. Finally, thank you for visiting my profile and thanks for listening. less
