Autorenporträt
From the Hartford, Courant: Born in a small English village "where children were seen, but never heard," Munro said this is how she learned the important arts of listening and watching. "I was fascinated by the power of the individual voice." Munro's career as a professional storyteller has included appearances as a feature teller at the National Storytelling Festival in historic Jonesborough, Tennessee; the Connecticut Storytelling Festival in New London; and R. J. Julia Booksellers in Madison. Other performances include Madison Lyric Stage.
