Biography

Elyse has loved reading since before she could read. When she was very small, her family had designated reading/homework time in the evenings during which she would sit quietly and pretend to read, making up her own stories while sometimes holding a book upside down. She can actually read now and hold books right side up, and has even edited them for New York Times best-selling authors. Elyse started narrating audiobooks because she thought it’d be fun to perform all the characters in a story but it’s also kind of hard. Somehow she has managed to win two Earphone Awards, given by Audiofile Magazine (now Kirkus Audiobook Reviews) for “exceptional audio experiences,” and one audiobook was named one of the best of the year.

Elyse also acts on camera and works as an acting and dialect coach for film and TV.
