Grover Gardner has recorded more than 650 audiobooks since beginning his career in 1981. He's been named one of the ""Best Voices of the Century"" as well as a ""Golden Voice"" by AudioFile magazine. Gardner has garnered over 20 AudioFile Earphones Awards and is the recipient of an Audio Publishers Association Audie Award, as well as a three-time finalist. In 2005, Publishers Weekly deemed him ""Audiobook Narrator of the Year."" Gardner has also narrated hundreds of audiobooks under the names Tom Parker and Alexander Adams.
