Anyone who has watched a Hollywood actor like Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Hudson or Will Smith attempt, and butcher, an African accent will be happy to know that a new book-
African Accents: A Workbook for Actors - has just been published in the USA.
The book's author, Beth McGuire, is a university professor and voice coach to many American actors. McGuire says as more and more Africa-themed films are made by Hollywood, the first such guidebook will ensure actors get it right.
