It came as quite a surprise to discover my speaking voice was in iPhones all around the world when the Siri application was released in 2011. It was good to learn I was not the only one who experienced this unexpected development in my voice-over business!
Susan Bennett is the original American voice of Siri, and we were recently asked to be interviewed TOGETHER for a German podcast (interview coming soon.) At the end of the interview I told Susan how great it was to finally talk with her – she was in Atlanta, I was in New York and our podcast interviewers were in Germany – and how I had an idea to have a dinner with a whole group of well known voices. She then let me know she was going to be in New York two days later and invited me to meet her for coffee.
…and two days later we met near the Highline for a fabulous lunch.
Meet THE SIRI’S – what a fun and totally enjoyable experience to meet the amazing Susan and hear about her extraordinary career.
This could just be the start of something big. Stay tuned!
