Beth Horner as Teller-in-Residence at the International Storytelling Center

Noted for her spirited stage presence, comic sensibility and warm, energetic style, Beth Horner is a vivacious talent dedicated to providing an entertaining and empowering experience for her listeners, young and old. Her stories are renowned for their high comedy and stunning drama: from her hysterical, childhood farmyard escapades to eerie folktales of her native Missouri, side-splitting spoofs of romance novels, and hysterical epics of life’s escapades! An NSN ORACLE Circle of Excellence award recipient, Horner has performed in venues across the U.S. including on Live from National Geographic. She most recently worked with NASA where she collected the stories of scientists behind the Apollo Space Missions. “Horner’s timing and delivery are so moving and funny that her performance is akin to great stand-up comedy.” – Bulletin Storytelling Review
