When I think back to getting up at the crack of dawn to go downtown San Francisco to read the news for Broadcast Services For The Blind, I’m so glad to have had that great first voice over opportunity. It was a daily live broadcast, a challenge for a voice over newbie and a way to give back.

Which brings me to a wonderful email we just received from Bob Jordan who has just joined AIRS-LA as a narrator for the blind and print impaired listener. Here’s his email:

“I have some exciting news to share with you ! I have just joined AIRS-LA as a narrator, reading for the blind & print-impaired listener. I read articles from ‘Money Magazine’. I’ve done quite a few things in this business since I began back in 1977, but nothing quite as rewarding as this ! It’s quite an honor to freely give of your talents for such a worthy cause and great organization. I would personally like to commend Max R. Flehinger – President, for all the hard work he does.”

Even if you’re an veteran voice actor, it might be something rewarding to do. I think I’ll contact them and do some narrating for them.

Thanks Bob for your email and inspiration! Keep us posted on your experience with AIRS-LA.
