In Memoriam: William Dufris, Audio Luminary

March 2020 was marked for many as the time when the world really went sideways due to impending Covid-19 pandemic. For me, I also had to bid farewell to my company co-founder, kindred spirit, adventure buddy, friend, and inspiration: William Dufris.

Bill left this world on March 24, surrounded by his family after an epic battle with esophageal cancer.

His legacy and memory live on — through countless people he coached and inspired, through the hundreds of hours of audio drama and thousands of hours of audiobook content he produced, and through his infectious kindness.

Bill’s loss was also a major motivation in Fred deciding to offer his free Online Audio Drama Workshop.
