Rob Greenbaum is a professional narrator and voice-over talent in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Before training in narration and voice-over acting, Rob was a public interest lawyer for approximately twenty years. He's well accustomed to explaining complicated matters so that everyday people can understand them. That was essential in his work for a Native American tribe-dealing mostly with environmental law and cultural issues; as well as in his role as a staff attorney at New Mexico Legal Aid, where he handled consumer rights, landlord-tenant, and family law cases for low-income clients. Both experiences made him comfortable discussing anything from highly technical subjects to sensitive matters requiring understanding and compassion. Being a detail-oriented lawyer also taught Rob the importance of developing his knowledge about subjects with which he may not have been familiar previously. Such diligence equally serves him as an audiobook narrator, particularly for nonfiction. But, like any good attorney, Rob knows that information is only worthwhile insofar as it's used to tell an engaging story.
