Character Voice Technique with Shannon Parks

Shannon Parks (aka Marguerite Gavin) has been a professional audiobook narrator for over twenty years, with over 700 titles, numerous Audie nominations and Earphones awards, and a devoted fan following. AudioFile magazine describes her as having the “coveted ability to disappear as the narrator, letting the story take the limelight it deserves.” Her narration spans nearly every genre from mystery, fantasy, sci-fi, romance, and children’s fiction, to a huge variety of non-fiction work. Drawing not only from her decades of experience as a narrator, but also as a director, actress, and acting teacher in theater, Shannon’s work as an audiobook coach focuses on the art of acting in narration, for which she has been described as having “a magic ear, and an ear for magic.”
