Audio Books

A Picture Book of Anne Frank

Author David A. Adler | Illustrator Karen Ritz | Narrator Randye Kaye

PastPerfect

Author Susan Isaacs | Publisher Brilliance Audio

“TA fun caper, read with the perfect bubbly bravado by Randye Kaye.”

—Sukey Howard, AudioBook Page

“Susan Isaacs’ PAST PERFECT receives Randy Kaye’s fine actress background and broadcasting strengths as it tells of Katie’s ideal life working as a TV series writer.”

—Midwest Book Review, AudioBook Page

“Sometimes I like narrators because they sound the way I imagine the author would sound. In my mind…Randye Kaye is Susan Isaacs (Past Perfect).”

—Kathy Hansen, blogger/author, A Storied Career

“Kaye reads the story primarily in Katie’s voice: a semi-sophisticated New Yorker with a flippant edge. She also creates excellent voices for the other characters: the former co-worker, squeaky and irritating; the former undercover spy, deep and slow; and Katie’s understanding husband, calm and resonant.”

—‘Nola Theiss, KLIATT, 2007

Testimonials from Happy Customers

“Need a smooth, melodic voice? Or maybe a female character, like a gum-snapping waitress or a doting mom? How about a cabaret singer? Make one call to Randye. She’ll nail it.”

—Joe Giaccone
President, Storytellers Inc., Norwalk CT

“Randye has worked with Fairview Media on multiple projects with tight deadlines, and rapidly changing requirements. She has always been right with us, through easy clients, and not so easy jobs, remaining on track and on time, giving her expert knowledge of professional voicing to us. Randye is an asset that I will continue to keep in my ranks for the future.”

—Eric Oppegaard
Holdcom Voice Production

“Spoken Arts first recorded Randye Kaye in 1984, and have had her voice dozens of projects ever since. Producing children?s audiobooks requires great narrators; Randye is the consummate storyteller. She is among the best voice actors we’ve ever recorded; a real pro.”

—Daniel M. Welsh
President and Publisher, Spoken Arts Media, NY

“Randye gets it. She has a way of sensing the right level of assertiveness, compassion, playfulness, sarcasm (or whatever is being called for) on the first take so that subsequent takes are more a matter of fine-tuning. Recommending Randye Kaye to my clients makes me look good!”

—Walt Graham
Walt Graham Productions, Norwalk, CT

“Randye is an outstanding VO talent, and a great person. She is consistent, professional, and takes direction extremely well. You couldn’t want more or do better.”

—Bruce Colgate
Partner, Alliance Video and Post, Inc.

“Randye can quickly match the right sound to the VO need. And, she can do so for hours at a time if necessary with little direction. For us, she’s been a superb fill-in radio host in both news and music capacities.”

—Tom Kuser
WSHU Radio (NPR affiliate, CT)

“Randye and I have done commercials together, and, like me, weboth come to voice-overs from a long background in radio. I believe that broadcasting experience allows one to “get it” quickly, as well as to react well to direction and to “bring one’s brains” to the project should we need to self-direct. Working with her, I know that Randye has all the above skills in abundance. She is a pleasure to work with, and I enthusiastically look forward to the next opportunity.”

—Paul Payton
Owner, Paul Payton Voice-Overs & Narration

—Byron Campbell

“I have known of Randye’s work for some time as a seasoned professional voice over talent. Last year I had the opportunity to hire her through my company, Bill Rock Productions, for a specific project. After working with her I found her to be very versatile, possessing much talent as well as knowledge of the craft enabling her to bring something new to the table while still taking direction. In other words the type of talent with whom a producer wants to work. I subsequently hired her for more diverse work and that time she was even able to recommend other voices to fill the requirements of that job. Randye is a pleasant accomplished professional and I would definitely hire her again.”

—Bill Rock

I’ve recommended her to other producers and will continue to do so.”

The finished product was highly praised and won several industry awards. I would not hesitate to hire Randye in the near future.”
