Hear how he kept track of the dozens of character voices he brought to life in Harry Potter, and his unusual way he ensured he could record a second take of a line. Jim Dale has narrated new takes on classics such as The Beast’s Heart, brightened full-cast recordings like Spin: The Rumpelstiltskn Musical, and enlivened the worldwide bestseller The Night Circus. Listen as Jo Reed and Jim Dale discuss his audiobook work and his extraordinary career in the entertainment industry. Jim came to audiobooks accidentally, and later in his career, and listeners are so lucky he did. What many listeners may not know is that Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was his introduction to audiobook narration. If you ask an audiobook listener about their favorite audiobooks, odds are good that they’ll say they adored Jim Dale’s narration of the Harry Potter series. Our monthly bonus episodes give you a chance to hear longer interviews with authors and narrators, and today we are delighted to share a conversation with one of the best in the audiobook industry. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. Behind the Mic with AudioFile Magazine is excited to be part of the Lit Hub Radio network.
