I’m a quirky, spunky cherub who, in true Pisces fashion, swims dual currents as a silver lining seeker and the voice of reason. Committed to being my personal best every day and a bright light in your production, I'm kind and fun to work with. I'm seasoned with 50+ years of stage experience drizzled with work in film, TV, new media, voice-overs, and fronting Motown, country, and Doo-Wop bands. I love character voices, dialects and accents. Local to Nashville, TN and Long Island, NY. More: sibcom-tlb@msn.com
