Elwood Edwards (born November 6, 1949) is an American voice over actor. He is best known as the voice of the Internet service provider America Online, which he first recorded in 1989. His greetings include "Welcome," "You've got mail," "You've got pictures," "You've got voicemail," and "Files done." In 1989, Edwards's wife overheard online service Q-Link CEO Steve Case describe how he wanted to add a voice to its user interface. In October, Edwards's voice premiered on AOL's new program. His voice has also appeared in an episode of ''The Simpsons'' (where he provided the voice of a virtual doctor, saying "You've got leprosy" ), and in advertising for the movie ''You've Got Mail.'' He started in radio while in high school. After high school he continued into television, working as a live booth announcer. Despite some on-air work, doing a car commercial, reporting news or sports and even a short stint as a weatherman (once proclaiming to New Bern, North Carolina that "You've got hail."), Edwards focused mainly on off-camera work. Semi-retired, he used to sell personalized .wav files through his website. On the March 4th, 2015 episode of ''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'', Edwards appeared on screen to read humorous phrases. ==Other jobs== *News Graphics Supervisor, WKYC-TV *General Manager, KVVV *Operations Manager, WAKC-TV *Ops Supervisor/ Senior Director, WFTY-TV *Production Mgr / Senior Director, WCTI-TV *Senior Director, WITN-TV *Announcer/Director, WNBE-TV *Announcer/DJ, WHIT-AM 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elwood Edwards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
