Robin Miles

This post was originally published on Audible.com.

She’s been the voice of such powerful pieces as Hidden Figures, the basis for the hit movie, and Roxane Gay’s An Untamed State.

Robin Miles, who’d been acting on and off Broadway and on TV, got her start in audio by working with the American Foundation for the Blind, where she recorded fiction, nonfiction, and poetry—after getting rejected at first and tweaking her style to suit. She’s had several Audie nominations since, winning as part of large cast recordings such as In the Embers, which won Best Audio Drama for 2017, and for her direction of Roots in 2007. She’s been drawn to women’s stories, often those of women of color, and often ones with emotional and devastating themes, which she says can often affect her during the process.
