Leslie Gallagher

​

Leslie Gallagher’s performing career started with her first Tap Dance recital at age 5, and continued while earning a BA in Dance (Music Performance minor) from U of Idaho, and an MS in Dance from U of Oregon. Health issues interfered with her Dance career, but this led to the discovery of the perfect combination of her love of reading and her passion for performance: Audiobook Narration. She started volunteering with Learning Ally while taking coaching from Johnny Heller, Ann Richardson, and Joel Leslie Froomkin, and is now a proud member of the Professional Audiobook Narrators Association (PANA).

​

When not in her booth, Leslie and her two cats, Jinx and Rune, enjoy gluten-free baking, cross-stitching, and knitting (she also designs knitting patterns!). Leslie wishes that every day could be Halloween.

​

Fantasy, Science Fiction, YA, Psychological Thrillers, Humor, and Romance (under her pseudonym, Lavender Skye) are her strengths, but Leslie also gravitates toward Non-Fiction- especially History, Music, and the Fine Arts.
