Award season continues with the 2020 Ellie Awards for American magazines in March, and I’m excited to say that I narrated 4 of the feature story nominees!

First up, the New York Times Magazine did an amazing piece on travel host Rick Steves, and his love of Europe and of weeeeeed. Reading aloud his “high thoughts” journal was a true highlight of 2019. “Rick Steves Wants to Set You Free” was written by Sam Anderson.

Next, “Angels in East Texas” by Wes Ferguson is about staging “Angels in America” in a small Texas town in the 90s. This was for Texas Monthly.

Mother Jones did a shocking expose titled “Inside the US Marshals’ Secretive, Deadly Detention Empire,” by Seth Freed Wessler.

Finally, ProPublica reported an incredible series on recent disasters in the US Navy, including “Fight the Ship” by T. Christian Miller, Megan Rose and Robert Faturechi
