More About Elizabeth - Fiction, fables, urban legends, gospel stories, original tales, and history “you never heard in school” fill the repertoire of this storyteller and author. Storytelling always came naturally to her - her sisters claim she started telling at age four. After 20 years in the business world, she began her storytelling career in 1990, sharing the intimate art of storytelling and charming children, teens, and adults with her tales.
Elizabeth has been honored for her storytelling recordings. Her children’s tape Unusual Aesop’s Fables was named to Booklist Editor’s Choice in 1997. Unusual Christmas Tidings, a CD for mature youth and adults, won 2002/3 Pegasus Award with Distiction.
Elizabeth has been teaching storytelling to youth and adults since 1996. She was awarded Artist in Residence grants from the California Arts Council and Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission in 1996-99. She was awarded a Storytelling in Community grant from the National Storytelling Network in 2006-7.
In 2002 Elizabeth had to limit her live appearances for health reasons. She does occasional performances, and still shares the secrets of good storytelling in workshops for parents, youth, teens, docents, and other adults.
