The advent of audiobooks have made great literature like Erica Baurmeister’s No Two Persons accessible to wider audiences.

Those with vision problems can now enjoy novels at a push of a button. Drivers on long journeys can tick off the miles chapter by chapter. And adults who enjoyed being read bedtime stories can do so again through audiobooks.

In No Two Persons, Rowan is an actor who leaves Hollywood due to a skin condition and finds success as a voice actor who has a knack for recording audiobooks.

Dan Popp, a veteran voice actor, will explain how the written words on a page become the spoken words in your ear when he presents “The Stroryteller’s Story: How Audiobooks are Made” at 11 a.m. on Saturday, March 15.

Registration is required.

Popp began a career in radio at age 16. In the late 1980s, he made the transition from broadcasting to voice acting and audio production, founding Akron-based Colors Audio in 1989.

Through the transitions from tape to digital recording, and from fax-and-Fedex to electronic delivery, Dan has provided high quality sound for commercials, eLearning courses and more, including audiobooks.

In 2014 he began coaching the next generation of voice actors.

Dan lives in Akron, Ohio with his wife Vicky, and one too many cats.
