I can't help it. I have a crush on five or so men. A voiceover crush. Voices I admire immensely. One of them is Keith David. His work in animation is legendary, and his work on documentaries puts me in a bit of a trance. In case you're looking for inspiration, here he is in documentary mode:

And here are many of his animation roles:

And here's a nice, short, documentary showing him at work in the animation studio:

Keith David is SO good in everything. His voice was the epitome of badass in those US Navy commercials from the late 90s-early 2000s.

I've always loved what Reg Rogers did in these Vault commercials.

One of my favorite narrators is Alex Jennings, who does at least 20 characters in the audio book, The horse and his boy.

I just noticed this link to the audiobook on U-Tub. Enjoy!

Have a short listen, and if you like it get it from Audible
