How do I get into voice acting/voice over work?

I currently live in Louisville, KY and would like to get into doing voice over work for commercials and things like that and would love to eventually get into doing voice acting for animated programs. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

This a very competitive field. You need to find a reputable agent and get into a position to work on the East or West coasts. While it is true that many established stage a screen actors do voice over work, it is an aspect of acting that is more accessible the "in front of the camera/on stage" acting that is more commonly sought. Also, look in VARIETY the entertaiment trade paper.
