About Your Instructor
Ronnie Butler
Ron Butler is an LA-based actor with over a hundred film, theater, and television credits, (most notably as a regular on "True Jackson VP”), and an IFP Award winner for his work in the HBO film “Everyday People”.
In 2010 he wrote, produced, directed, and starred in the Obama musical parody "Modern U.S. President" which has millions of views, and was featured by The Huffington Post, Variety, Roger Ebert, and CNN. The exposure led to an ongoing development relationship with television great Norman Lear and producer Brent Miller.
As a voice-over artist, he has narrated over 450 audiobooks to date. His titles make “Best Of” lists every year. He has been nominated for multiple Audie Awards (the audiobook version of the Oscar), and he’s won over two dozen AudioFile Magazine Earphone Awards.
Originally from the Bahamas, he grew up singing calypso onstage with his father (the country’s number one recording artist), before touring (and recording) in Europe with his own jazz band in the late 90s, The Swing Solicitors. He has been known to impersonate Barack Obama while playing the ukulele.
