Elias Hartwood

Elias Hartwood is a professional voice actor specializing in character work, narration, animation, comedy, video games, podcasts, and audiobooks. But don't worry, he doesn't ALWAYS sound like a zany, wacky character! His natural mic presence is described by clients as "a friendly, laid-back twenty-something with a calming demeanor and just a hint of mischief."

He's like a raccoon or a golden retriever in human form! And he can pivot at the drop of a hat into a bumbling wizard, a sharp-toothed goblin, or the friendly fella who lives next door. Hidey ho, neighbor!

Hartwood is professionally trained and has been on stage since grade school. He started down the road to showbiz as a child by watching Saturday morning cartoons and imitating all the voices in the back seat of the family car. Who needs friends when you have SpongeBob and Foghorn Leghorn to keep you company? Then, as a teenager, he discovered a strange and *possibly cursed* board game called Dungeons & Dragons... and that was it! His fate as a storyteller had been sealed. After four years of competitive acting classes and a dash of musical theatre, he threw caution to the wind, left his humble home in Oklahoma, and became a working actor!

His parents are still in therapy.

Elias now resides in the beautiful state of Colorado, where he produces voice over professionally from the comfort of his home studio. When he's not behind the mic, you can find him exploring wetlands with his soulmate and their scruffy four-pawed child, giving the raccoons in his neighborhood names and dramatic backstories, and *still* playing D&D with a ragtag band of ruffians who LOOOVE to split the party.
