Jess Garrett - Voice Over

A clip of the upcoming audiobook, "My First Red Sox Game: Catch of the Day!" by Christine Connelly

Jessica's delightful voiceover makes the magic of 7 year old Sarah’s epic day seem larger than life, and her spoken words are artful colorations of Sarah’s emotions, painted for all to feel; a picnic for the ears. - Christine Connelly - author

Audio Documentary Production

A visit to the scene of a loss leads narrator, Camilla Brinkman, to uncover a story about her grandfather, a Polish Jew wanted by Hitler, trailed by J. Edgar Hoover, and whose life intersected with FDR.

Misfiled archives, previously unknown research, and other finds help her assemble the puzzle pieces of secrets in this third-generation suicide investigation told against the backdrop of World War II.

Jess Garrett - The Sunshine Voice

After literally being discovered on the street by WGBH producers, I studied extensively with the legendary Wren Ross. The first time I stepped into a recording booth, I had the intense feeling of having found my home.

In the recording studio I have been complimented for being easy to work with, responsive to direction, and able to convey rich emotions. I can handle many genres, but especially enjoy work for children.

Clients include 'GBH, Mass Audubon, Mass Save, Service Titan, Hasbro, various authors, and more. I have volunteered weekly for the National Library Service for 8 years, reading audio books (mostly young adult novels), magazines such as Yankee and Boston Magazine, newsletters, and anything else they ask me to!

I performed on Portland Helmich’s excellent podcast, Stranglers, produced by Earwolf and Northern Light Productions. I’m on episode 5 at 36:36, but I highly recommend the whole series.

And I was a producer on the audio documentary, "The Un/Recovering" a 3rd generation mystery of loss and finding after WWll.
