James Cheatham

James is a multi-award-winning, and professionally trained audiobook narrator. During his service in the US military - both US Navy and US Army - he visited over 17 different countries and developed a deep respect and fascination for the cultures, ethnicities, accents, and personalities. Having been actively deployed to war zones four different times, his approach to military and special ops fiction has a depth and detail that is clear and concise. Now a part of the civilian world once again, James has embraced his true calling in life - acting.
Since childhood, James has enjoyed playing every role with his background in theater, therefore making audiobooks a natural fit. As an avid player of role playing games for over 20 years, such as D&D and Pathfinder, James brings an air of authenticity when casting a Sci-Fi LitRPG, or Dungeon Core book. James has recorded for Tantor, Blackstone, as well as The AudioFlow.
When not in the booth, he feeds his creativity baking yummy treats in the kitchen, painting miniatures, and being a dungeon master for tabletop RPG’s.
