about me

MICHA BERMAN, a native of Baltimore, currently resides in Marin County, north of San Francisco, and continues to use his microphone skills honed on the cruise ship as a professional voiceover artist. His voice can be heard on radio and television commercials for First Republic Bank, Kelly Moore Paints, Notre Dame De Namur University, the United States Postal Service, Brown and Toland, AMD and Dentek Nightguard. When not moving his mouth, he moonlights as a social worker trying to save the world. Berman is a graduate of the University of Virginia and holds Masters degrees from New York University and George Washington University. For several years he taught a class on “How to Get a Job on a Cruise Ship,” as an adjunct Professor at New York University and has published magazine articles on how to break into the cruise line industry. His resume includes short stints in strange smelly places including a dairy farm, law school, the United States Congress, and the Tony Awards. He spends most of his time changing poopy diapers, and buying lottery tickets. He has no immediate plans for any cruises.
