ACB welcomes Madelyn Buzzard to Sparks Nevada as our 2017 talking book narrator.
In 1983, Madelyn Buzzard walked into the American Printing House for the Blind in Louisville, Kentucky to audition for their Talking Book program, and, as they say, the rest is history. For over thirty years she has recorded thousands of titles in multiple genres, including murder, mayhem, medicine, and Miss Manners! She was a proud recipient of the Alexander Scourby Award in Fiction in 1994.
Born in New Jersey, she studied theatre; graduating from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC, and education; receiving a BA from the University of louisville. She has appeared on stage, screen and television throughout her career and now enjoys skiing, fishing and cooking with her husband, stepchildren and six, soon to be seven, grandchildren!
She was married in lake Tahoe 29 years ago, loves Nevada, and is looking forward to sharing time and stories with you all. Thank you for the opportunity!
Madelyn will also join LIBRARY Users of America for their program on Tuesday afternoona, July 4th.
