About

Are you a publisher, producer, or author looking for a narrator? I’m a narrator who loves creating grounded, relatable characters. My favorite genres to narrate are mysteries, thrillers, science fiction, and non-fiction – especially biographies and memoirs. Got another genre in the works? Reach out – let’s start a conversation.

I’m a member of SAG-AFTRA, the Audio Publishers Association, and PANA (Professional Audiobook Narrators Association.) My background includes an MFA in acting from CalArts and over 25 years experience as a theatre actor, performing in everything from Shakespeare to works by emerging playwrights.

When I’m not in the booth, you can often find me in the kitchen. With Google as my trusty chef’s assistant, I find lots of plant-based recipes to try. Creating vegan versions of traditional dishes is a specialty: March is for exploring Irish dishes, Thanksgiving for good ol’ American comfort food, and so on.

Another other lifelong passion is photography. I’ve probably had a camera in my hands since I was about 10.  These days, my camera is mostly my iPhone but sometimes you’ll find me out and about with my digital Nikon.

Follow me on social and let’s continue the conversation.

Or shoot me an email at ann@annsimmons.com. I’d love to hear from you.
