Praise

"May Wuthrich is a trusted colleague who has been a producer-director for Penguin Audio and has directed for Random House Audio for over 10 years.  She has proven herself one of the most skilled audiobook directors out there and is beloved among authors and actors.  If May is working on your project be happy, you're in good hands."
Dan Zitt, Senior Vice President, Content Production for the Penguin Random House Audio Publishing Group,
 

"May has produced and directed a number of audiobook projects for me. I find her to be a pleasure to work with and adept at every aspect of the production process. She invariably casts the right actor for a given project and is skilled at directing them, eliciting their best performance. She instantly establishes rapport with actor and engineer alike, making the experience a positive one for all concerned. As for editing and post production, May is committed to making certain that the final program is flawless.  I have nothing but praise for her work!” 
Arnie Cardillo, President and Publisher, Live Oak Media

“May was highly effective in her role as director and producer. Assertive in coaching us while still being encouraging. I had great appreciation for her follow through and proactivity in managing all the moving parts of the process — guiding us to choose recording studios, coaching us in our reading of our individual parts, evaluating our final performance, and helping us think through distribution. And all this was done off site in a seamless and efficient manner." — Shayne Hughes, co-Author, Ego Free Leadership, President, Learning is Leadership

“I truly appreciated how May helped me through the process. She's direct, but understanding; she allowed for our own creative process, while suggesting best practices. And, most importantly, I felt prepared." — Brandon Black, retired Director and CEO of Encore Capital Group, co-Author, Ego Free Leadership,

“I was nervous about recording my first audiobook.  I had never done anything like it and it was a highly personal project, my memoir Shout, written in verse.  But working with May was a dream come true and it turned out to be one of the most delightful experiences of my creative life. May made me feel comfortable and was a constant source of support and good humor. She brought professionalism, integrity, and kindness to each recording session.” — Laurie Halse Anderson, Award-wining, Best-selling Author of Shout
