Hello Adrienne, I use VoiceOver in English and French all the time. At the moment, you need to get French voices from Assistiveware. These are the Acapela voices and they're very good. However, when Lion comes out, there will be voices in all the languages into which VoiceOver is localised.
To switch voices, and therefore languages, you just press VO-Cmd-Arrow keys, using left or right to find Default Voice, then up and down to find the voice you want. VO remembers the last voice you used, so I just have to do VO-Cmd-Down arrow to switch languages.
