Featured Information (Required if paying $20 for Directory of Storytellers)
Sue is a Touring Artist with the Texas Commission on the Arts which is pretty cool because TCA will help pay up to half of her fees through their online grant application. Ask her about that! Sue excites and connects to family audiences by taking them on journeys through her multicultural folktales, fairy tales, urban legends and personal stories from around the world. Sue’s storytelling passion and energy originated from her 32 years as an elementary teacher and librarian in San Antonio. She has performed at multiple schools, libraries, and festivals throughout Texas such as the Folk Life Festival, the George West Storyfest, and the UTSA and Tejas Storytelling Festivals. As a frequent presenter of workshops on integrating storytelling into the classrooms, Sue has motivated several schools to begin their own storytelling clubs empowering students to find their own voices. She is the 2016 recipient of the Tejas Storytelling Association's Colson-Herndon Storytelling in Education Award.
