Como ha dicho Cassandra Campbell, “Un buen narrador de audiolibro es alguien que puede salirse del camino y dejar que la historia sea lo más importante”. Y nadie es mejor ejemplo de esto que Cassandra Campbell, quien tiene cientos de créditos de audiolibros a su nombre y se entrega en cada uno con una claridad y honestidad reconfortante. Gracias a su esfuerzo, ella ha sido condecorada con múltiples Audie Awards, Earphones Awards, el prestigioso Odyssey Award, entre otros numerosos honores.
Cuando de su repertorio se trata, ningún narrador es más versátil que Cassandra Campbell Ella es la voz de varios de los thrillers más interesantes de la década pasada, incluyendo Everything I Never Told You, Bird Box, y Dark Places, y también ha narrado muchas historias inspiradoras de no ficción acerca de mujeres fuertes, tales como The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, The Girls of Atomic City, and Orange is the New Black. También ha actuado en algunos de los mejores elencos de todos los tiempos como enThe Help de Kathryn Stockett, que estableció un nuevo nivel para el arte de los audiolibros cuando salió al mercado en 2009.
Campbell siempre ha sido una lectora ávida y le ha encantado leer en voz alta; recuerda haber hecho que sus hermanos la escuchasen leer a James and the Giant Peach y los cuentos de hadas de los hermanos Grimm cuando estaban en la escuela primaria. Sin embargo, no se metió oficialmente en la narración de audiolibros hasta mucho más tarde, cuando estaba haciendo locuciones comerciales y un amigo la conectó con Books on Tape. A Cassandra Campbell le encanta la oportunidad de contar historias y formar parte de una tradición que se remonta a la epopeya homérica.
Mientras también ha actuado en el escenario, los audiolibros se han convertido en el centro de la carrera de Cassandra Campbell. En los últimos años también se ha aventurado en el éxito con la dirección de audiolibros, optando por un estilo colaborativo que permite una interpretación orgánica e íntima. Incluso ha llevado el sombrero de directora y narradora en un solo título en Dark Places de Gillian Flynn. "Ese fue un gran viaje para mí", dice.

Historia
We expect our judges to be honest and wise. Their integrity and impartiality are the bedrock of the entire judicial system. We trust them to ensure fair trials, to protect the rights of all litigants, to punish those who do wrong, and to oversee the orderly and efficient flow of justice. But what happens when a judge bends the law or takes a bribe? It’s rare, but it happens. Lacy Stoltz is an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct. She is a lawyer, not a cop, and it is her job to respond to complaints dealing with judicial misconduct.

Historia
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells - taken without her knowledge - became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than 60 years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects.

But in a split second, everything she's known is proved to be a lie. A single bullet, gracefully tapered at one end, is found lodged at the base of her skull. Caroline is stunned.
