He is also a voice-over artist, having been on heard on numerous instructional, business-to-business, and commercial spots (you can many of his voice-over credits on IMDB). He is also the voice for Bernie in the puppet web series "Bernie Frankly."As a father of two daughter's and a happily married man, Simon's work tends to focus on stories that are "bigger than us," yet have a sense of reality to them. As such, Simon is not afraid to jump into roles that have a darker side to them in order that a story may be fully and realistically told.Simon holds an MFA in Acting from the University of Texas-Austin, where he also performed in many student films; and a B.A. in Theatre from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.
