Linda Gorham
Dynamic and exciting, award-winning storyteller, speaker, & author, Linda Gorham inspires her audiences by using movement, humor, and sometimes zaniness as she tells imaginative multicultural folktales updated with “attitude.” And be prepared -- many of her tales actively involve the audience. Get ready to chant, get ready to move, get ready for fun! Plus, watch out, you may be inspired, relive a memory, and learn something new. Linda also tells fairy tales, December holiday, Civil War, and spooky stories. Additional programs include stories of African American legends and stories that explore themes of love, unity, “differences,” and respect. Linda performs internationally as a storyteller, speaker, and workshop presenter. She was co-chair of the National Storytelling Conference held in Chicago in 2003. Linda has been featured on the PBS show, Arts Across Illinois. WTTW, Channel 11 television and the Illinois Arts Council produced her story-video, No Time for a ParTAY. Linda’s story CD, Common Sense and Uncommon Fun, won four national awards. Linda received a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics from Montclair State College. She worked for thirteen years as a manager in Prudential Insurance Company’s Human Resources, Training, Public Affairs, and Actuarial Departments. This experience, combined with her storytelling skills, makes her a sought after keynote speaker and workshop facilitator for many major national corporations. Linda and her husband John have two delightful and wonderful "almost grown" sons, Anwar and Jamal.  Further Information Available At > http://www.LindaGorham.com
