Shana Pennington-Baird is the director of the Seattle Voice Institute and a voice-over artist. Eighteen years ago Shana ‘bent' her vocal cords after performing for six shows consecutively without break and teaching kids theatre during the day. For six weeks she did not speak, for nine months she did not sing, and after healing without any kind of surgery has gone on to a long career in audiobooks, promo, commercial VO, eLearning, musical theatre, and teaching vocal health.
