Bio / Herstory
Lesley studied vocal performance as a coloratura with a secondary in violin in the early 90’s (University of Toledo, Ohio State University). Wanting to learn the studio trade, she worked her way up in Chicago’s post-production industry in jingles (Catfish Music), broadcast TV (Broadview Media), and commercial finish (Cutters). She routinely voiced demos and landed her a break as the voice of Nintendo. She went freelance on the audio side (Hear No Evil Sound, 2004) to voice national commercials, industrials, and documentary work. Years later, returning to Ohio, a market where audio is AV, she rebuilt a diverse client base. On the voice side, she took on long-format work which opened a world of active participation in characterization, accent work, cold reading, endurance, and technique.
In her free time, Lesley writes music with her husband (After-Death Plan). The duo began recording together in Chicago in the 90’s as part of her musical conglomerate Mal Vu, a rotating cast of musicians weaving dark tales. ADP’s 1st album “Literature” is comprised of songs dedicated to books and authors. For the album, Psycho Social Sexual, ADP picked up cameras to create music videos, and they were awarded grants to expand the use of the visual medium. They appreciate craftsmanship and rehab historic homes. In 2023, they launched Hidden Oak Writer’s Lair where writers can stay in a creative environment, with a curated library, to finish their work. Lesley continues to write articles, stories, lyrics, poems and prose mainly under the moniker of LAFogle.
