Thriller Third Person - A man in the depth of grief

About

After decades of acting on stage and film (including thousands of performances of one-man shows throughout the Southwest), I’ve lately been focusing my talents on the world of voice acting and audiobook production. I've narrated close to 70 audiobooks for fiction and non-fiction of various genres over the past 7 years and received an Earphones Award from AudioFile Magazine in April of 2025.
