Once upon a time before cell phones and laptops there lived a young woman who loved
to tell stories. ...
I have been telling stories all my life and turned professional with the turn of
the century. I became a founding member of the Champaign-Urbana
Storytelling Guild in 2001. I served as secretary, treasurer and then
as president of the Guild for four years, bringing many outside tellers
to local venues as well as organizing workshops on the art of
storytelling. I have told at the University of Illinois Youth Festival,
the Urbana Park District Chautauqua Centennial Celebration, the Cape
Girardeau Storytelling Festival and the Sterling Storytelling Festival
as well as numerous smaller venue gigs. Currently on UPTV cable channel
6, I produce and host “The Stories We Tell”, a program of recorded
concerts, interviews with authors, and storytellers..
