We Are One Team
This is the group that makes the magic audible. The editors, engineers, strategists, and storytellers who care just as much about your project as you do — because that’s the only standard Talkbox has ever known. They show up with the kind of rigor and warmth that this work demands.
Different skills, different roles, one shared conviction: your voice matters, and this work deserves to be done right.

Meet The Founder
Narrator. Director. Producer. Writer.
And the person who built Talkbox Productions because she couldn’t find a team that cared as much as she did.
Tavia Gilbert
Founder / CEO / Creative Director
Talkbox didn’t start with a business plan. It started with a bet — that voice, done with real craft and genuine care, could carry a story further than it could go any other way.
Nearly 20 years and 1,000+ audiobooks later, that hasn’t changed.
The team has grown. The projects have gotten bigger. What has changed is the scale of what’s possible.
Founder, CEO, and the kind of collaborator clients keep coming back to. Tavia brings nearly two decades of experience as a narrator, director, and producer to every project Talkbox touches — along with an Audie Award, an Odyssey Award, a Grammy nomination, and a deep, practiced understanding of what it takes to make a voice truly land.
