StorySave
Featured Storytellers
StorySave has been recording our master, elder storytellers since 2002. Each year, tellers are selected by committee from nominations by SC-CC members. You can learn more about the tellers and their recordings by clicking on the project icons below. You can purchase their recordings by visiting the SC-CC Shop page.
*Most of the StorySave recordings have been done in only one language - mostly in English - and have not been translated. The biographies of those tellers and the description of their recordings remain in the language they were produced.
