ABIGAIL RENO

Actor, Audiobook Narrator, Voiceover Artist
 

    Abigail is a lifelong artist and performer who found a love for music and acting as a child. She studied opera and choral conducting at the undergraduate level after having her interest in performance piqued by many roles in musical theater growing up. 

 

    She spent time studying under acclaimed acting coach Howard Fine in Los Angeles, and was cast as the lead role in the web series Cleaner Daze (Austin Film Festival 2017, Tribeca 2018).  

 

    The world of audiobook narration was a natural transition for Abigail. She has always been a book-worm and was often caught hiding under her blankets past curfew with a book and flashlight growing up. 

 

     With over 50 books on Audible, she is a versatile performer who is exceptionally dedicated to her craft, driven by the art of storytelling to stir emotion and inspire human connection.

 

    Her voice has been described as strong, elegant and sincere, with a wide range of character voices that hold an empathetic quality and will pull you into a story.  She enjoys narrating all genres of audiobooks, with a specific love of nuanced and complex characters, fantasy worlds, historical fiction and classic literature. She is currently coaching with Shannon Parks (who narrates as Marguerite Gavin), PJ Ochlan and trains her voice with Thom Jones.

 

    When not in her home studio in Oregon, you can find Abigail exploring the nearby forests with her toddler on her back, baking sourdough bread, fermenting everything in sight, sewing, running and gardening. If you really want to get her going, ask her about foraging for mushrooms & other wild edibles, bike polo, rock climbing, hitchhiking around Europe, working in horse therapy, and the myriad of farms she's worked on (she has a special affinity for flowers, milk cows & Icelandic sheep).

 

Abigail is a widowed mother to a feisty toddler, two dogs, one cat and six chickens.
