Episode #16: The Art & Science of Audiobook Narration with Sean Pratt

  • Summary

  • Have you ever wondered what it takes to transform a book into an engaging audiobook?


    In this episode, I talk with actor and audiobook narrator, Sean Pratt, to explore the art and science of narrating audiobooks. With a career spanning 35 years in acting and 27 years in audiobook narration (also known by his pseudonym Lloyd James), Sean has recorded over 1,100 books across almost every genre. His work has earned him 9 AudioFile Magazine “Earphones” awards, 5 SOVAS nominations, and 5 “Audie” nominations from the Audio Publishers Association.


    Most recently, Sean narrated Jonathan Haidt’s new book, “The Anxious Generation,” which topped the Associated Press’s list of ‘Top 10 Nonfiction Audiobooks.’ Beyond his narration work, Sean is the author of “To Be or Wanna Be: The Top Ten Differences Between a Successful Actor and a Starving Artist,” a must-read for aspiring actors that outlines the key behaviors and mindsets that differentiate success from struggle.


    In addition to his narration and acting work, Sean dedicates his time to coaching performers on audiobook narration techniques, teaching classes, and writing articles about the business side of the industry.
