Eric Michael Summerer is a voice actor and producer whose voice has been heard in countless commercials and instructional recordings. A graduate of Syracuse University, studying both TV/Radio/Film and Theater, Eric has served as narrator for hundreds of audiobooks, including Arthur C. Clarke’s Childhood’s End, Kurt Vonnegut’s God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater, and novels set in the Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder universes (Elaine Clark's Songs and Swords series, Liane Merciel's Nightglass and Nightblade). He is an Audie nominee and AudioFile Earphones Award recipient. Interactive media credits include Mytran Wars, King of Fighters 2006, and Metal Slug 3D. Eric is also the voice of the companion apps for One Night Ultimate Werewolf (Bezier Games) and Dead of Winter: A Crossroads Game (Plaid Hat Games).
Eric’s favorite games include Pandemic, Alien Frontiers, and Merchant of Venus, but he’s willing to try just about anything, from abstract strategy games to (horrors!) the latest version of Monopoly. Eric is active on BoardGameGeek with the username amazingintern, and can be followed on Twitter at @ericsummerer. He also enjoys watching lots of television, listening to novelty music, and fondly remembering his short-lived curling career.
