Meet the Narrators

Susan Crane
In 2001, Susan Crane joined Narrative Television Network to narrate television programming and movies for blind and visually impaired audiences.

“It’s an honor to work at Narrative Television Network,” “It’s not only enjoyable, but rewarding as well. How many people can say that about their own work?” --Susan Crane

Susan began her broadcasting career at Public Radio Station KWGS in Tulsa as a student announcer and when she graduated from the University of Tulsa in 1985, she was Assistant News Director. She went on to work at Tulsa radio station KRMG for over a decade, as a morning co-anchor and assignment editor. Susan has been honored by several organizations including the Associated Press and the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters. She has stayed very busy since leaving KRMG in October of 1999 to start her own business and to work as a freelance writer and narrator. She has been an editor of two local magazines and has been a contributing writer for another. Susan also was an adjunct professor at Rogers State University in nearby Claremore, Oklahoma.

NTN President Jim Stovall said, “Susan's background and experience, both as a voice talent and a writer, make her very valuable to NTN. Susan’s most impressive quality, however, is the passion she has for the work we do and the audience we serve.”

Even though she was born in Denver, Colorado in 1965, Tulsa has been her home almost all her life and she believes in giving back to the community. Susan volunteers with “The Race for the Cure”, an effort to raise money in the fight to eradicate breast cancer. “I believe in giving back to the community that has been so good to me,” she said. Susan enjoys spending time with her husband Scott, son Christopher, and daughter Casey in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow.

Dick Loftin
Dick Loftin joined Narrative Television Network as a narrator and writer in November 2005 after more than 35 years in the radio broadcasting business.

Dick was born in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, and moved to Tulsa in the mid-seventies. After marrying his wife Ruby in 2002, they moved to Broken Arrow where they now live.

After spending most of his working life in the radio business, Dick is proud to be a part of the NTN family. “My interest in Narrative Television Network dates back several years. I have known Jim Stovall as a motivational speaker, author and owner of NTN. He has an outstanding reputation and it is a pleasure to work with him and the terrific staff at NTN. It is great to be part of a positive work environment and team. It is particularly satisfying to work for a company where I can help people and do some good,” he said.

Dick Loftin’s other interests include reading, particularly biographies and history. He is pursuing a degree in history at Tulsa Community College. A favorite pass-time is spending time with Ruby and vacationing in the Rocky Mountains.
