Storyteller Elizabeth Ellis
The Southern Oklahoma Library System is excited to bring storyteller Elizabeth Ellis to Southern Oklahoma. Elizabeth Ellis grew up in the Appalachian Mountains and was a children's librarian at the Dallas Public Library before becoming a professional storyteller. The "Divine Miss E" is a versatile and riveting teller of Appalachian and Texas tales and stories of heroic American women, though her personal stories are arguably her best. Invariably hilarious and poignant, she is a repeated favorite at the National Storytelling Festival. A mother and grandmother, she makes her home in Dallas, Texas.
