Profile Information

I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)

Voice Actor, Speech-Language Pathologist

HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE

Speaking has always been a major part of Bonnie’s life. Her training began as a speech-language pathologist with an unique interest in vocal properties and functional voice disorders related to vocal abuse. Her dissertation delved into the perceptual and physical traits of hoarseness and breathy voice quality. Continued training includes attendance and formal presentations at national and regional voice conferences as well as a clinical practice for adults. She has been a voice coach for singers and speakers and professionally recorded voice intonation training tapes.

Experienced as a speech pathologist, voice coach, educator and now a voice over artist, Bonnie understands the physiological properties of resonance, inflection, pitch and projection. She has the vocal training and experience needed to help you fulfill your voice over project.

Accent Bias: Do You Have It? By the Speech Doc / Bonnie Engel Lee, Ph.D. Speech/Language Pathologist

If you’ve seen the movie, My Fair Lady, which I had a chance to see again after many years, then you have some notion of the concept of changing an accent.
Henry Higgins, played by Rex Harrison, is a linguist who places a bet with wealthy gentlemen that he can pass off Eliza Do-little (Audrey Hepburn) as a member of the upper class. When Eliza is introduced to high society at a party, a self proclaimed language expert calls her a fraud and claims that she is probably a foreigner. His reason in s… Continue
