[Interview] Jane Lynch brings the funny to Apple’s Health app ad campaign

Preston Barta // Features Editor

Don’t sweat about your most personal data getting into the wrong hands. As the voice of Apple’s ad campaign for the iPhone’s Health app, Jane Lynch is here to tell you how the app helps you control who can and cannot see your health data.

Privacy matters, as do laughs. And Lynch supplies plenty of them in her new TV spot, “The Waiting Room.” Catch a glimpse of it in our below conversation, where we discuss the mental prep that goes into narrating a comedic commercial and if she’s more relaxed or hyper-focused about what she shares online with other apps.

I have been working as a film journalist since 2010, dividing the first four years between radio broadcasting and entertainment writing in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. In 2014, I entered Fresh Fiction (FreshFiction.tv) as the features editor. The following year, I stepped into the film critic position at the Denton Record-Chronicle, a daily North Texas print publication. My time is dedicated to writing theatrical film reviews, at-home entertainment columns, and conducting interviews with on-screen talent and filmmakers, as well as hosting a podcast devoted to genre filmmaking (called My Bloody Podcast). I've been married for ten happy years, and I have one son who is all about dinosaurs just like his dad.
