    About Tom Zahner

    Tom Zahner is American born, British educated with a Swiss passport. The son of a Pan Am pilot, he grew up traveling the world and was educated in England, Germany, and California. He trained in England at the renowned Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art. He has appeared in over 90 professional theatre productions, including the German premieres of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, Jean Michel Schoenberg’s Les Miserables and the British Jaques Brel project Anonymous Society, earning him the coveted Barclay's Bank Award for Best Musical in Britain, and Edinburgh’s Fringe First and The Total Theater Award.

    As voice-over artist, Tom has become the international voice of global players including Deutsche Bank and Porsche: be it in German or English, British or American - or the globally understandable "Mid- Atlantic.”
