Holly Miller performs At the Funeral of my Grandfather, a poem by Andrew Miller.
Holly Miller has been a voice actress for four years. She is active in Community Theater and has a weekly radio program width Audio Journal, a service that broadcasts printed material to the blind and visually impaired.
From Holly: “My son, Andrew Miller, wrote the poem, “At the Funeral of my Grandfather” when he was a senior in college. While I was privy to his motivation for writing it, I really wanted to capture his vision of the poem. I called him for advice, but he really had none, other than he didn’t want the cadence to be too singsongy. With that in mind, I began my session by stumbling on some of the words because I was too focused on how I was saying them. After Wren helped me shift my focus back to the words’ meaning and the emotions embedded in them, the poem fell into place. I am happy to say that Andy is very pleased with how the recording turned out.”
