Award winning audiobook narrator (AudioFile Earphones award and Library Journal Award).
Here In Berlin by Christina Garcia review: "Narrator Joan Walker doesn't attempt to give each of the many characters a particular voice. Instead, she gives each of them a personality and a mood ranging from seductive intimacy to cold fury. ...an emotional saga held together by Walker's masterful interpretation." (Clip in demos)
"Seldom have I enjoyed a story so much! Her voices and narrative style make this wonderful story [Britt Marie Was Here] even more enjoyable, and I will be deeply sorry when the story has ended. I am officially a Joan Walker fan and would listen to an audio book just to hear her narrate!"
