She is an audiobook narrator, and a live audio describer (for theatre-goers with vision loss) with Vocal Eye descriptive arts:
Eileen has worked with student actors, aged 5 to 85, for 35 years, with groups including the Gateway Theatre Academy, Arts Club Theatre, Vancouver Youth Theatre, Presentation House theatre, Theatre 45 (West Vancouver), Richmond Children’s Arts Festival, Langara College, and the Vancouver Peretz Centre.
She is a recent graduate, with a Master’s degree in Liberal Studies, from Simon Fraser University.
And she is so grateful to Diane and Robert for the opportunity to voice Garnet, to hear and share all of these incredible women’s stories, and to learn from and act on the decency and humanity they lived.
