    Jeffrey DeMunn is one underrated performer. Why haven't I heard of him before????? hide show

    I am in the middle of listening too DreamCatcher by Stephen King. This very long book is narrated by Jeffrey DeMunn. I've been lisening to books on CD for a long time. I am constantly borrowing from our local libarry and also buy them occationaly. I listen in my car back and forth to work and on any long drives. I must say that Jeff's voice is the best I have ever heard. His reading is dramatic without going over the top. I don't want this book to end. He really breathes life into all the characters. I checked out him filmography and now will be sure to look for his many performances. What a talent!
