"“Harlan Hogan has written a fascinating, often hysterical and-most importantly-stubbornly honest account of the real world of voice-overs. If you want to know what the business really is like, reading this book is the easiest and smartest decision you could possibly make."
Dan O'Day, broadcast media and marketing consultant, Los Angeles
"Funny. Insightful. All you need (and don't need) to be a successful voice-over. The best, and funniest, practitioner of the craft has once again written the best, and funniest, book about the craft."
Chuck Cohen, writer/producer, San Francisco
"Voice-over work is a very delicate dance of interpretation, a mastery of one's own instrument. Harlan Hogan is that talent-a maestro of the art of vocal calisthenics. His wit and wisdom found in these pages is a must-read for anyone connected with the industry or considering a career at the mic."
Hope Krosskove, broadcast producer, New Jersey
