About

Al Kessel is a full-time narrator and voice actor from the sunny state of Arizona, where he works from his professional home recording studio. For Al, performing is a passion, and audiobook narration was the most logical career path for him, since, from his earliest memory, he’s been a voracious reader, often acting all the characters out in his mind (and to the dismay of many, out loud!). Al prides himself on his ability to breathe life into any character, because, as anyone who knows him will tell you, he’s quite a character himself!

Training: Johnny Heller, Sean Allen Pratt, James Foster, Fred Frees, Joel Leslie Froomkin
