Dynamic and exciting, Linda Gorham uses movement, humor, and sometimes zaniness as she tells imaginative folktales, twisted fairy tales, and history stories updated with “attitude!” Her stories, keynotes, and history programs inspire, entertain, and engage audiences of all ages. Her stories are sometimes very interactive and often downright funny. Even her serious topics are engaging and have moments of humor.
Linda performs internationally as a storyteller, speaker, and workshop presenter. Her 2014 CD, Jumping on Grandma’s Plastic Covered Couch, is a revealing look at the poignant, quirky, and often unpredictable world of family, love, and self-identity.
