I'll drop the entire contents in a PM to you, but for everyone else reading, here's the summary: there are a lot of descripton companies, and most of them hire contract work (and these days, some companies and distributors manage their own).
Some narrators are also the author of the script, but it's probably more common for it to be separate people. This may depend on union contracts: for example, at WGBH (Boston public television station) where she's worked, narrators have to be SAG members, and describers must not be in the Writer's Guild.
She suggests contacting the describer in this case directly (and I'll drop the links for that in the PM), and says that describers are often quite willing to talk about this kind of thing.
