George Newbern Narrator Follow

George Young Newbern, born December 30, 1964 in Little Rock Arkansas, is an American actor and audiobook narrator, best known for his roles as Charlie in the ABC show Scandal and Bryan MacKenzie in Father of the Bride (1991) and its sequels Father of the Bride Part II and Father of the Bride Part 3 (ish), as well as Danny (The Yeti) in Friends and his recurring role as Julia's son Payne in Designing Women.  He is also known for providing the voices of Superman in many pieces of DC Comics media (most notably the Justice League and Justice League Unlimited animated series and the Injustice video game series), and Sephiroth in the Final Fantasy series and the Kingdom Hearts series.

Newbern has seven AudioFile Earphones awards to his credit. He believes that recording audiobooks is definitely the hardest thing he’s done. “I love it, but it’s very difficult because it’s really hard for me to sit my butt down for long periods and focus.” However, once he gets lost in a project, he commits to it completely and time disappears.
