The woman who brought Siri to life

Susan Bennett is featured in the latest episode of the video podcast, People in America. Here’s the iTunes link.

Most interesting tidbit? Susan did all her voicework for Siri in 2005, but Siri wasn’t really mainstream until it was integrated into iPhone OS (now iOS) in 2011 and she was unaware that her original voicework was going to be used for Siri. Fascinating.

  1. Looking forward to seeing a bunch of breathless articles about her every 3 or so years, like we do with Susan Kare now.

  2. I don’t mind that one bit. Bennett did terrific, humane work, which I believe can still be heard in the NYC subway system.
