Don't miss the latest Shelf Addiction interview! On today's podcast episode I’m interviewing award-winning audiobook narrator Tavia Gilbert. Listen as she shares some of her experiences while recording Be Frank with Me by Julia Claiborne Johnson, the audiobook that won Tavia the 2017 Best Female Narrator Audie Award!

​Tavia Gilbert is one of my favorite narrators and I know that you'll enjoy her work as well. Congrats to Tavia on being named Booklist's 2018 Voice of Choice!

Bio

​Winner of the 2017 Best Female Narrator Audie Award, Tavia Gilbert is a producer, writer, and acclaimed narrator of more than 500 full-cast and multi-voice audiobooks for virtually every publisher in the industry. She is a nine-time Audie nominee, three-time nominee and one-time winner of Voice Arts Awards, and the recipient of twenty Earphones Awards, a ListenUp Award, and three Parent’s Choice Awards. She is a trusted and sought-after actress for work across every genre, from children’s and YA, to literary fiction, non-fiction, and genre fiction. 
Audible named her a Genre-Defining Narrator: Master of Memoir, and Library Journal has written of this highly-acclaimed actress that she is "as close as you can get to a full cast narration with a solo voice." Tavia earned a BFA in Acting from Cornish College of the Arts, studied audio documentary storytelling at the Salt Institute, and holds an MFA in Creative Non-fiction from Vermont College of Fine Arts. She is the co-founder of Animal Mineral Press, which publishes fiction and non-fiction that intends to manifest social justice and the founder of Juniper Street Photography. She is a popular college guest lecturer on writing and performance. ​​

​Featured Title | Be Frank with Me

PictureClick to purchase!
​Reclusive literary legend M. M. “Mimi” Banning has been holed up in her Bel Air mansion for years, but now she’s writing her first book in decades and to ensure timely completion her publisher sends an assistant to monitor her progress. Mimi reluctantly complies—with a few stipulations: No Ivy Leaguers or English majors. Must drive, cook, tidy. Computer whiz. Good with kids. Quiet, discreet, sane.

When Alice Whitley arrives at the Banning mansion, she’s put to work right away—as a full-time companion to Frank, the writer’s eccentric nine-year-old, a boy with the wit of Noël Coward, the wardrobe of a 1930s movie star, and very little in common with his fellow fourth graders.

As she gets to know Frank, Alice becomes consumed with finding out who his father is, how his gorgeous “piano teacher and itinerant male role model” Xander fits into the Banning family equation—and whether Mimi will ever finish that book.
