ABOUT

Kelley Rae O'Donnell lives in NYC where she currently works as an actor, voiceover artist, producer and writer.  

Kelley grew up in a tiny Pennsylvania town straight out of "Mare of Easttown," she was the only person she knew with artistic inclinations, so she embraced her grandfather's blue collar work ethic and commuted weekly to NYC as a teen to begin an acting career on her own. 

Since then...

She has also given voice to a number of video game characters, narrative podcast characters, educational materials, and animated characters. 

  • Kelley can deliver sultry, warm, rich, grounded, raspy, sassy, spunky, quirky, witty, dryly humorous or just plain bad-ass narration, from period to contemporary. She has plenty of genre versatility, as well as a light, honest earthiness that comes from her growing up in tiny rural towns of Eastern Pennsylvania.
