RudyDear Andy,
Thank you for your remarkably generous donation, making you our most distinguished supporter to date. Every contribution reflects a generous heart and a personal commitment to our craft, and yours resonates with exceptional clarity. We are especially inspired by the profound connection between our mission and the legacy of James Earl Jones. It is deeply significant that James Earl Jones chose Buzzy’s Recording as his official home, a decision that stands as a testament to the visionary leadership you established as the creative force behind the studio. This unique bond underscores the power of voice to transform lives and unites us in our shared love for Mr. Jones' extraordinary legacy and the beauty of our community.
Your gift not only propels our mission forward, it lights a path for others to follow. Your generosity is a beacon that inspires us all and will undoubtedly catalyze broader support for our cause. We eagerly look forward to celebrating with you this November at the official unveiling in New York City at the James Earl Jones Theatre, where your presence will further honor the legacy of a man whose talent and humanity inspires so many.
With heartfelt gratitude and admiration, Rudy

It is my honor and privilege to join the endeavor for the James Earl Jones Prize through SOVAS in my name and in the name of Julee Antonellis, Tommy Antonellis (Sr.) and Rosemary Antonellis (the Antonellis family) and in the name of the Voice Arts Awards-nominated podcast "Back Through The Basement". My family and I are staunch supporters of SOVAS and we are so grateful for the myriad ways SOVAS has shown their support to us.
I could only select one teammate to credit for this donation -- Joan Baker -- but this is TOTALLY credited to BOTH Joan and Rudy Gaskins who have shown me inordinate kindness.
As to the namesake of the award: James Earl Jones could not be more of an idol and hero to me. I felt his loss palpably in 2024 and I think it so fitting that such an iconic voice be assigned to the spirit of this enduring award.

With gratitude, Tom Antonellis
