01 — About
From the stage to the story you're telling now.
Over three decades, James Barbour has originated and starred in some of Broadway's most iconic roles, performing since 1983 and on Broadway since 1992. His work has earned him the LA Ovation Award for Best Actor, along with nominations from the Drama Desk, Drama League, and Outer Critics Circle.
That same command of story and voice now shapes his work off the stage — as the Amazon bestselling author of The Artist's Survival Guide, and as the founder of Star Power Speakers, where he helps people find, trust, and use their own voice.
