ABOUT CHRISTY HARST VOICE TALENT
My voice over journey started in college when I applied for a news internship at a local classical radio station. During the interview the station manager told me I had a good voice, escorted me to the studio, asked me to read the Star Spangled Banner into a microphone, and pressed record. After I was done he played it back and said, “You’d do well in voice overs.” I didn’t even know what a voice over was, let alone how to get into the business. At the end of the internship, he gave me my first voice over job – a tag line for a commercial. My parents drove an hour to get in range to hear it on their car radio.
More than two decades later and one home studio, I have lent my voice to clients like Delta Faucets, Sherwin Williams, Bank of America, and PNC Bank. I truly enjoy what I do and it shows in my work. Television commercials are lots of fun, but so are medical training programs, on-hold messages about deicers, and narrating the proud history of a church.
Take a listen to my demos and if you like what you hear, don’t hesitate to contact me. I welcome the opportunity to earn your business.

eLearning
When you think of eLearning you probably think…..snore….boring….”Bueller? Bueller?” Well, there’s no snoozing or desk drooling when I voice an eLearning project. Lots of my clients say that my voice is easy to listen to, bright when it needs to be, stern enough to state the rules, and above all real.
Explainers
Step by step guides, explanation of processes, and listening about how things work doesn’t have to invoke memories of watching the clock tick, tick, tick by. As a voice over actor with over a decade of experience, I can see opportunities in the script to inject fun, compassion, warmth, and conversational tones.
Corporate Narration
When you think of commercial real estate, blue collar industries like construction and shipping, or highly technical fields like aerospace and solar energy, most people expect a male voice. When I voice Corporate Narration, I provide smooth, polished, sophisticated delivery that punches through to grab attention and keep it.
Narration
Your favorite documentary is your favorite in part because of the narrator. Smooth delivery that adds to the footage instead of overpowering it is what I deliver.
Promo
I’m not sure if there is anything more fun than promo! And right now women are carving out a space in the promo genre and it’s about time. I love the challenges that promo brings, like getting the timing juuuuust right and how each word of an eight word script tells a story. My award nominated promo demo produced by my promo mentor Joe Cipriano shows my ability to voice everything from nightly news to family programming.
