Sandra Murphy is an award-winning actress with over 10 years of acting, improv, and storytelling experience.  She received a BFA in Communications and has narrated over 100 audiobooks across a wide range of genres, authors, and accents.

 

Sandra is a trusted and sought-after actress for her detailed impassioned work. She is frequently hired for her ability to embody uncomfortable topics, such as human trafficking, mental health issues, domestic violence, and addiction. On the lighter side, Sandra has a strong sense of comedic timing and a fierce sarcastic wit, which makes her perfect for cozy mystery antics or irreverent non-fiction. Listeners enjoy her “flawless” character work where she “adds just the right amount of flair and drama” to the story.

 

Beyond her audiobook work, Sandra’s innate sophistication makes dense language accessible in medical narration and e-learning.  As an improvisational actress, she coaches first responders by embodying believable characters in crisis. Her goal is to empower them to recognize humanity in others and “see people as people” in times of conflict. This first-hand experience informs her performances in mystery, thriller, and suspense narrations.

 

Based in Denver, Sandra can easily narrate books set in the historic West. She is passionately involved in the Colorado writing community and is a proud member of Sisters in Crime and the National Association of Voice Actors. She has presented on her favorite topic - audiobooks - at Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers, Pikes Peak Writers, Fan Expo Denver, Northern Colorado Writers, Sisters in Crime, Women in Film and Media Colorado, and Women Writing the West among other organizations.  

 

On her time off Sandra loves to hang out with her family which often includes cooking amazing food, laughing hysterically, and dancing in the kitchen. On those truly blessed occasions when audiobook production deadlines are met and her family well fed, you will find her just relaxing in the backyard on her hammock – book in hand.
