Frank Muller in Memoriam
"[When Frank reads] the blind will see, the lame will walk, and the deaf will hear."--Stephen King
.
Frank Muller, one of the most talented audiobook narrators in the industry, passed away on Wednesday, June 4, 2008 at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina.
Frank was involved in a serious motorcycle accident near Los Angeles, California in November 2001, and sustained multiple fractures, lacerations, abrasions, and suffered severe head trauma, which was subsequently diagnosed as Diffuse Axonal Injury, from which he never recovered.
A classically trained actor, his numerous credits included leading roles in
Hamlet, The Importance of Being Ernest
, and
Under Milkwood
at the New York Shakespeare Festival, the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C., and many other top regional theaters throughout the country.
Anyone who loves audio knows his work. His artistry in the spoken world medium was perhaps best described by
The Chicago Tribune
: "Deftly segueing from Shakespeare to Stephen King, from Melville to John Le Carré , Muller has established himself as... the Laurence Olivier of the medium." Every narrator owes him a debt of gratitude for helping establish our industry and bring it the respect it deserves.
