National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped Narrator, Bob Asker, won the Alexander Scourby Narrator of the Year Award in June 2002, making him the only narrator to win the award twice! He has recorded over 800 books for the NLS program on a wide variety of subjects, including fiction, nonfiction, children's literature, mysteries and biographies.
