My first job as the female “Voice of Ingram” was doing the intro for the Barbara Walters interview. Listen to it here:

I sound all funky and DJ cool on a professional microphone!
I didn’t actually get to *see* Barbara speak, because I was too busy doing a Children’s Book Week podcast for the sound check. But I’m not bitter.
Much.
I enjoyed your pronunciation of the word “memoir” — clearly a sneaky tribute-cum-poke to Baba Wawa herself!
Heehee! They sprang the script on me at the last minute and it was a completely cold reading…and since it was for such a big superstar, I consciously chose the pretentious Alex Trebek pronunciation. 🙂
