GRAY GLEASON

"AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. . ." UNUSUALLY ENGAGING, WARM AND FRIENDLY, AUTHORITATIVE, YET CONVERSATIONAL, GRAY SOUNDS LIKE YOUR FRIEND, YOUR NEIGHBOR - YOUR DOCTOR OR MAYBE THAT COUNSELOR AT YOUR OLD HIGHT SCHOOL. HOWEVER, YOU'LL ALSO FIND THAT HE'S QUITE VERSATILE - ACCENTS, CARTOONS, CHARACTERS, AND OTHER MORE STYLIZED TYPES OF DELIVERY ARE ALSO WITHIN HIS REPERTOIRE.

BRINGING BOOKS AND STORIES TO LIFE GRAY GIVES THE LISTENER THE ABILITY TO "SEE" WHAT'S GOING ON. HE'S ALSO PRETTY GOOD AT TURNING ADVERTISING DIALOG INTO 'REAL' CONVERSATION -

SINCE THE "ACCENT" SECTION BELOW ISN'T VERY LARGE, HERE ARE A FEW MORE. . .

IN ADDITION TO THE "NATURAL" ACCENTS LISTED BELOW - GRAY CAN ALSO GIVE YOU ABOUT 3 DIFFERENT BRITISH ACCENTS (FROM OXFORD EDUCATED, TO BBC, TO COCKNEY) AND AN "OZZY" ACCENT THAT HAS FOOLED A NUMBER OF NATIVE AUSTRALIANS.

CARTOON SOUNDING ACCENTS (NOT NATIVE, BUT A BIT 'OVER THE TOP' - GOOD FOR FUN STUFF) INCLUDE -

RUSSIAN (LIKE BORIS BADINOV).

MEXICAN - SPEEDY GONZALEZ.

GERMAN, ITALIAN, FRENCH, EAST INDIAN, IRISH, SCOTCH, CANADIAN *(GREAT WHITE NORTH) - JAPANESE, CHINESE, WESTERN COWBOY, ED WINN (REMEMBER THE "MAD HATTER" IN ALICE IN WONDERLAND?) - MILITARY (GEORGE C SCOTT) - AND MANY MORE...

EVEN IF YOU JUST WANT SOMEONE TO GIVE AN EXCITING AND FUN READ TO THE PHONE BOOK . . .GRAY'S YOUR GUY!
