Karen's Story

Graduated from Baldwin High School in 1972. I am a voice-over artist with my own website. Since giving the address is a "no no" just go to karengerstman dot com. Take a look and see where you may have heard me on an onhold or website! Voiced an award-winning fun, educational software CD-Rom for preshoolers (Story Narrator and voice of all the characters) Jungle Animals is the first of 6 CDs in the Story Logic Series by Smart Neurons and was awarded CD of the Year by "Creative Child Magazine" in 2006, (and the second CD, Autos Train and Helicoper was awarded in 2007) and has been endorsed by the Dove Foundation. It encourages critical thinking, imagination and decision-making skils in a child while laying the foundation for language skills and reading comprehension. So all you baby boomers with grandkids now, feel free to order! The CD can be purchased for your preschooler in the store of my site referred to above or at the Smart Neurons website. Was a legal secretary (paralegal degree as well) for 30 years right here in New York City for firms specializing in medical malpractice defense and personal injury. In 2003 I was diagnosed with Meniere's Disease, an inner ear disorder characterized by severe vertigo, dizziness, hearing impairment, distortion of hearing, tinnitus, sensitivity to light and sound, etc. - so yes, I am an official dizzy broad.

I am a hearing impaired voice-over artist. To protect the guilty, let's just say that the law firm I worked for just didn't want me back and relieved me of my duties in January of 2004. Just as well since only months after undergoing inner ear surgery, the vertigo came back. So times have been tough, however, when one door closes, another one opens and I have been an extra in The Stepford Wives (though Frank Oz took out all of the NY scenes); Sydney Pollack's "The Interpreter" which opened on April 22, 2005 and was fantastic working on the first movie to film at the United Nations; Law & Order:Trial By Jury (Episodes: "Vigilante" with Lorraine Bracco; and Finale-"Day" starring Angela Landsbury, Rita Moreno and Al Molina), Just My Luck, Spiderman 3, new FX drama starring Glenn Close called "Damages". Doing commercial print work as well. A fun fact, is in the 90's I did a promo commercial for a singing group "Wild Orchid" - one of the gals in the group was a fantastic singer named Stacy Ferguson...we all know her today as Fergie, now with the Black Eyed Peas and solo singing artist. Still love rock 'n roll (though kind of sensitive to sound) and really just about any kind of music, shows, theatre. Having been raised on Long Island, still love the beach, though I mostly swim in pools these days, unless I get the chance to vacation in the Carribean....Peace, K
