Entry #108: Kristin Atherton

About this episode

Kristin Atherton discusses her role as Jenny Fraser Murray and her experience as the new narrator of the Outlander book series.

This week on Droughtlander Diaries Podcast, we were joined by Kristin Atherton, who portrays Jenny Fraser Murray on Outlander and is the new narrator of the Outlander book series. Since we last spoke nearly two years ago, her episodes have aired and she’s recorded a large portion of the beloved books, so we had lots to catch up on! We talk about stepping into Jenny’s shoes, behind-the-scenes moments from set, her audiobook process, accents, and more! Plus, I couldn’t let her go without congratulating her on her Audie nomination. If you’d like to hear more about Kristin’s background and journey into acting, be sure to check out Diary Entry #15. We're so excited for you to hear this one! Follow Kristin on Instagram
