Conversations S2-E34 Susan Bennett

December 5, 2018, Mike and returning co-host, voiceover actor Jason Lewis
were joined by voiceover artist Susan Bennett. Based in Atlanta, Susan is a voice actor and singer whose voice has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV commercials for such clients as McDonald’s, Macy’s, Goodyear, Papa John’s, Fisher Price, and more.  She is the voice of Delta Airlines gates worldwide, and if you have ever payed bills by phone or utilized car navigation, you may have heard her as Susan is heard on hundreds of GPS and phone systems. But you probably know her best as the original voice of Siri! 

Her resume’ of jingles includes such clients as Coca Cola, Georgia Power, Kroger, and Krystal restaurants.  It was after a jingle session that Susan was asked to voice a commercial when the scheduled voice actor didn’t show up.  She discovered that voiceover was something she did well and enjoyed, so she took voice coaching, got an agent, and never looked back.

In addition to her successful voice arts career, Susan has toured with composer/producer Burt Bacharach as a backup singer, and later toured and traveled the world with the iconic Roy Orbison, also singing backup vocals, with a featured duet.
