Ted Williams (voice-over artist)
Ted Williams, nicknamed Ted "Golden Voice" Williams〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Catching up with Ted 'Golden Voice' Williams )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Man with the golden voice still going strong, alcohol-free )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What happened to man with the 'Golden Voice'? )〕 (born September 22, 1957), is an American radio host〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ted Williams: ‘Golden Voice’ is clean and sober, but struggling to pay the bills )〕 and voice-over artist. Williams gained widespread media attention when an interview made during a period when he was homeless went viral after being posted to YouTube in early January 2011. Williams subsequently received numerous job offers. He co-authored ''A Golden Voice: How Faith, Hard Work, and Humility Brought Me from the Streets to Salvation'' with Bret Witter. He is the founder of the Ted Williams Project, a non-profit organization serving homeless shelters.〔
==Background==
Ted Williams, an African American man, was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York City.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ted Williams' Mom on His Sudden Fame )〕 He served three years in the United States Army, was honorably discharged, and attended school for voice acting.〔Radio Interview, WNCI〕 His inspiration to become a radio announcer came from a field trip at age fourteen, when he found that a radio announcer whom he had heard looked nothing like he had imagined. Williams later worked overnight shifts for WVKO (AM) in Columbus when the station played soul music.
According to Williams, his life started falling apart in 1986 with a combination of drug and alcohol abuse plus a loss of interest in his career. In 1994, he was evicted from his house. During this period, Williams was arrested at least seven times on charges including theft, drug possession, escape, and robbery. He was also issued misdemeanor citations for drug abuse, criminal trespassing, and pedestrian solicitation. These resulted in two jail sentences, with Williams serving three months in 1990 for theft and nearly two months in 2004 for theft, forgery and obstructing official business.〔 He is a father of nine children: seven girls and two boys.〔 On October 10, 2014, he married Carol Gibson of Trenton, Michigan.
