After 22 years as a presenter, I left the BBC, and the UK, for a new life in America. There, I developed a successful property business, owning and operating two hotels in Fort Lauderdale, Florida." "During my years at the BBC, I was also running a parallel career as a voice-over artist, narrating documentaries, corporate videos, educational DVDs, trailers and commercials and it was to this aspect of my British broadcasting career that I returned in 1999." Help playing audio/video "In a sense, I still 'present' North West Tonight. It is my disembodied voice which can be heard introducing the Six and Ten o'clock news on BBC1." ![]() ... and John Mundy today. "But I also have a much wider audience. I can be heard, well, almost everywhere; from supermarket in-store radio systems, to banks and even on-board aircraft." "I am the 'image' voice of several BBC local radio stations including Merseyside, Solent and Jersey and for independent radio, I recently featured on a national campaign for a sat-nav company." "In the days before technology made possible the transmission of broadcast-quality audio over broadband, I regularly travelled forty-thousand miles a year to visit recording studios up and down the country. I now operate from a home studio in North Wales." "Because I'm able to work from anywhere there are phone lines, it'd be nice to be back in sunnier climes!" last updated: 11/01/2008 at 15:11 You are in: North West Tonight > History > Where are they now - John Mundy
