In The Envelope: An Awards Podcast

When it comes to voiceover, says Nancy Cartwright, “you can’t really make any mistakes.” The television legend, best known for her longtime work as Bart Simpson, here gives listeners a crash course on breaking into the biz as a voiceover talent—plus many words of inspiration. Whether you’re curious about voice acting or an artist wondering how to navigate the ongoing industry shutdown, this interview covers it all. Born in Ohio and mentored by Daws Butler in the art of voice acting, Nancy is the voice behind Bart Simpson and other characters on the world’s longest-running sitcom, Fox’s “The Simpsons.” She’s also appeared on “The Animaniacs,” “Kim Possible,” “Rugrats,” “The Replacements,” and more, turned her autobiography, “My Life as a 10-Year-Old Boy,” into a one-woman play, and wrote and produced the film “In Search of Fellini.” For “The Simpsons,” Nancy won the voiceover performance Emmy Award in 1992, and is in contention again this year.
