Andreas Fröhlich (born July 11, 1965, in West Berlin) is a German actor, voice-over artist, audiobook and radio drama narrator, and reciter. From 1995 to 2007, he also worked as a dubbing director and dialogue scriptwriter. Fröhlich became best known for his role as the "Third Detective," Bob Andrews, in the *Europa* radio drama series *Die drei ???* (The Three Investigators), which has been running since 1979. As an audiobook narrator—particularly in the genres of speculative fiction as well as children's and young adult literature—he gained increasing popularity starting in the early 2000s. Several of his productions have been featured on Germany's audiobook bestseller lists. In 2010, he received the German Audiobook Prize for his narration of *Doppler* by the Norwegian author Erlend Loe. Andreas Fröhlich serves as the official German voice actor for both John Cusack and Edward Norton. In 2003, he was awarded the German Dubbing Prize in the category "Outstanding Dubbing Script" for *The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers*. Fröhlich describes himself as a "radio drama performer." Andreas Fröhlich attended the Wald-Gymnasium in Berlin; after graduating from school, he began formal acting training, though he did not complete the program. At the age of just seven, he was discovered in the children's choir of the broadcaster *Sender Freies Berlin* (SFB), where he quickly established himself as a child voice actor within the radio drama department.
