Hi, I'm Francesca Amari -- thanks for stopping by!
I've been directing, proofing & prepping audiobooks since 2007, primarily for Brilliance Audio. I've also directed audiobooks for Random House, Harper Collins and Mosaic Audio; and I do proofing, research and prepping for individual narrators. I've directed some of the finest award-winning narrators in the audiobook world, including Scott Brick, Kathe Mazur, Julia Whelan, Arthur Morey, Anne Flosnik, Laural Merlington and more. I've been blessed to have also worked with numerous celebrity narrators, including Hilary Swank, Audra McDonald, Lucie Arnaz, Lou Diamond Phillips, Joe Mantegna, Deepak Chopra, director William Friedkin, comedian Kevin Pollak and rock legend Neil Peart.
I'm also a freelance researcher for individual audiobook narrators, and have worked as a Social Media Manager, project manager, proofreader, copywriter and copy editor for Windy City Publishing, as well as for private clients.
I came to the audiobook world from the world of theatre, where I have spent the last 30+ years acting, teaching and directing, ages pre-school through adult. I had the pleasure of spending 10 years teaching Creative Drama and Storytelling classes for Grand Valley State University, Aquinas College and Western MI University, and have directed productions of “Anything Goes,” “Tolstoy Story Play,” “The Velveteen Rabbit,” “Tuck Everlasting,” “Footloose: The Musical” and more. I work regularly as a professional singer, a teaching artist in a college prep musical theatre program, and have traveled from New York to L.A., performing music revues and earning rave national reviews for my solo cabaret shows.
