Yes. (to both, of course.) I did a lot of work with Peter Coyote at the 
last studio I did audiobooks in, and he does both magnificently. One 
day he was doing a PSA type spot ("Milk, it does a body good") and 
since the procuder was not available, he did it nine different ways, 
all spontaneous on the spot improvisations. It took us around the world 
in two minutes! Cold reading, too. Juts a sample, and he did a few 
dozen audiobooks before he caught on with the PBS crowd...

Then there is the famous Orson Welles outtake where he rants about the 
stupid ad copy  "you can't grow peas in snow, what is this c**p" and 
walks out of the studio...
I digress.
