An award-winning producer with a get-it-done (with a smile) attitude, Ralph Scott produces audiobooks, audio theatre, scripted entertainment, commercial spots, or pretty much anything within the live or recorded audio arena.

The characters Ralph creates on the spot (we lost count just north of 83) are only bested by the number of children’s verses he has written since he was handed a cocktail napkin on a dare back in 1993. (That would be just north of 1,700.) Give him three words and he’ll compose a witty poem for you in under five minutes.

Give him a studio and your manuscript and he’ll vibrantly breathe life into any character you craft.

Together with his roster of expert thespians, Ralph turns the studio into a theatre for the ear. Be sure to grab a chair the next time you download one of his audiobook productions. Dim the lights. And don’t forget the popcorn.

You’ll swear you’re in a movie.

Mordecai (Mordy) Newman holds both a law degree and a prior MFA from the Yale School of Drama. Until his retirement, his public performances consisted mostly of arguing in front of panels of appellate judges. Since then, voice-over characterizations have scratched his itch to perform. Character gigs have included an inept Russian spy, a Southern plantation owner, a Vietnam vet suffering from agent orange exposure, and more. You can currently hear his Karloff-like narrations in a series of animated Youtube videos drawn from Joe Hill’s best selling horror novel “NOS4A2.” (See on Youtube “Christmasland is Waiting,” “The Graveyard of What Might Be,” and “Who’s Charlie?”.) He has also been the voice of Retter & Co., a subsidiary of Sotheby’s International Realty, in TV commercials that ran in the northwest. Most recently, he was featured in the audio-drama “The Fate of Hyde Keys.” Mordy is thrilled to now be part of “The Missing Peace.” mordyforvoice@gmail.com

I’ve been an actress and singer my whole life, working in theater, television, film, and voice overs in several states throughout the U.S. and in France. I’m fluent in French and have done several plays in the language. I did opera vocal training in college and love musical theater. I was inspired to sing opera after seeing Phantom of the Opera! I also love science fiction/fantasy, so I love doing voice over work for video games and comic-based cartoons, audio books. In my free time, I love reading with my cat, traveling, doing yoga, going hiking, and spending time at the beach or river. 

Barbara Rich, owner of Richcraft Studios, is a voice actor and sound designer hailing from the high desert of Oregon in Bend where her solar-powered recording booth has been cradled in the cooling depths of her below grade (cough…basement) studio since 2016. She has had her finger in just about every voiceover genre there is with favorite projects being a 7-part animated series with the violinist Midori and just about any audiobook that she can make her way into. She is also an avid sound designer for theater and audio projects. Her theater projects include: Steel Magnolias, Here on the Flight Path, Stephanie Hero, the world premiere of Craig Fox Had a Wife, A Christmas Story, A Wrinkle in Time, Peter Pan (stage play), The Neverending Story, A Child Shall Lead, and Shakespeare in Hollywood. In her spare time, she performs on-stage either in whatever theatrical production she can win an audition for, sings with the Cascade Chorale or Jazz Central, and takes frequent walks, plays on the river or goes traveling with her dog and her family…not necessarily in that order.

Dave started his entertainment career as the lead singer and guitarist for the rock band Foxx. The band received accolades from fans all across America, and from other countries as well, for the original songs recorded by the band that were heard on rock n roll radio stations around the world. Dave toured extensively with Foxx, and recorded three cd’s, countless demos, and also composed songs for various small-budget movies and projects. Dave still writes and records new music, and along with fellow musicians in the band “October Rising,” have just released the title track for the soon to be released horror movie, “Side Effects May Vary.” When the musical touring came to a close, Dave realized that he had developed a strong voice which he could change in pitch and tone, and since he had been imitating cartoons and voices since he was a little boy, decided to give voice acting a try. Seemingly right off the bat, he was selected to record the voice of Lego Batman for some European markets, voiced commercials for The NFL and Yahoo Sports, and was picked up as the “voice” for the commercial producing company, “Eppic Films” based in Winchester, Kentucky. Since then, Dave has done hundreds of audio, and television commercials, voiced numerous video game characters, and is now the main audiobook narrator, for the popular sci-fi author, M.R.Forbes.

I have been an audiobook narrator since 2019. Before that, my passion for literature was expressed through Petaluma Readers Theatre and my local radio show, Not Your Mother’s Storytime. The radio show became a podcast with thousands of listeners who appreciate classic short stories. Finding my way into audiobook narrating was a natural next step.

I studied Theatre Arts at San Francisco State University, but my passion lies in reading stories aloud. I view storytelling as an essential and ancient part of society and civilization. Every culture has its stories and the tellers. I am honored to be one of them and to carry on this tradition.

When not in the booth, I enjoy being lakeside in the mountains, traveling to new places with my husband, caring for my chickens and my special needs adult son, or hanging out with my “coven.” I also enjoy puzzles, knitting, and old movies. I live in Sonoma County, California Wine Country, and yes, I’m a wine snob.
