Description
About Erin

Erin is a nonfiction audiobook narrator who also specializes in character work and narration for full cast productions and audio dramas, all from her home studio in Oakland, CA – the Sunny Side of the Bay. Her work over the past 6 years has been mainly full cast productions, asynchronously narrating and voicing a wide range of characters across more than 40 projects. Erin is drawn to the more dramatic/eccentric roles- bringing out the unexpected sides of a character, the humor, the subtle fears, the masked cruelty … be they human or not. She has recently expanded her character work to audio dramas. She com ... more es from a long line of teachers and preachers and narrating nonfiction is that for her. Erin loves teaching people about things, and crafting the way ideas come off a page so that the message pops and feels personal at the same time. Nerd. Let her teach you something or tell you about something great - all day. With training from the Berkeley Repertory School of Theater in voice over, improv, acting and dialect - RP, French & German, Erin is currently coaching with nonfiction master Sean Pratt and has also completed Joel Froomkin’s Acting for Audio 1 & 2, Narrator.life and PANA classes and an abundance of workshops and coaching. She co-manages BANG! the Bay Area Narrator’s Group. She is a mom, fandom fanatic and food truck enthusiast whose favorite color is piñata. Erin curls (think ice and stones) and has been a college radio DJ, driven a crane in the Port of Oakland and did a 4 year stint as a 6’4 green cougar mascot. Warm, wise, witty -serious fun. less
