"Narrator Reena Dutt whisks listeners into a heroic tale set in the Himalayas. As the heroine, young Asha, Dutt narrates in pure, sweet tones, relaying the girl's
innocence and imagination."

I find a deep joy in the conversations I have in the booth about character, culture and subtext. The process is so unique. By taking away visual identifiers, we're brought together by a stranger's breathe and voice bringing the authors' stories to life for a far wider audience than what film or television could strategize.
Dutt not only brings her experience as a director from theatre and film to the booth to speak the actor's language, but she also uses her global upbringing to act as a cultural consultant promoting authentic representation in the literature she directs, whether it's children's books, young adult, or non-fiction. She currently freelances with Penguin Random House.
