Hi! I’m Zach Barela, a New York City based audiobook narrator. I’ve been in the industry since early 2022, and so far I’ve recorded books for Macmillan Audio and Tantor Media. In December 2022 I was invited to participate in Macmillan Audio’s new narrator event at their headquarters in New York. Prior to that I worked with two wonderful coaches, Piper Goodeve and Emily Woo Zeller, on narration technique and preparation. Their guidance helped me immensely with getting started in this industry. I graduated from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in 2018 where I trained in the Meisner and Classical Studios and was a recipient of the NYU Department of Drama Outstanding Achievement in Studio Award. Since graduating, I’ve performed at various venues around New York City including La Mama Experimental Theatre Club, The Gallery Players, and The Actor’s Studio.
