A thirty-year veteran of performing stories, Cris likes best to tell the old tales.  Her favorites are folktales of those who solve the problem-and save the day–with their wits. 

She helped found The Worldwide Virtual Storytelling Guild, https://www.nestorytelling.org/virtual-storytelling-guild/ and has performed at the National Storytelling Conference, and the Stone Soup and Lehigh Valley Festivals. 

Most recently, she taught a voice workshp for Notheast Storytelling’s conference, Sharing the Fire.  She’ll be performing at Genesee Country Village this winter.

Cris recently completed a video on the basics of voice for Northeast Storytelling’s up-coming web library.  She’s currently working on a novel for middle grade readers- Magic Under the Strawberry Moon.
