The Customer Services Team hosted a short, lunchtime event at the library Wednesday, featuring Johnny Heller, an audiobook reader from Recorded Books. He gave lively readings from five books (including Iron Man, Marley & Me, and Dave Barry’s Complete Guide to Guys).
He and a Recorded Books representative also explained the research and production that goes into the making of audiobooks. “You have to read the book all the way through first and see how it ends,” Heller said. “It’d be awful for ALL of us to be surprised at the same time.” During that first reading, the narrator makes notes about characters (that will assist him with voices) and pronunciations (that company researchers correct or verify). The recordings themselves take place in studios above the Strand Bookstore in Manhattan. A 15 hour recording might take 30 hours to record in two- or three- hour segments.
Heller, by the way, is an in-demand, award-winning reader. More than 100 of his titles appear in our library’s catalog.
