Derek Stephen Prince

There's a particular kind of fame that lives only in the ear, and Prince has it. If you grew up in the late nineties, his voice was probably in your living room long before you knew his name, from Elgar in Power Rangers to a parade of Digimon characters. What I respect most is the craft of disappearing into voices, of being everywhere and nowhere at once. The Carnegie Mellon training shows in how fully realized each character feels. His 2024 switch to Steve Prince is a small footnote, but the catalogue of work he built under the old name remains gloriously, anonymously durable.
