Bio:For years, Camille amused friends with tales of everyday life. When she began to do history presentations for Girl Scouts, she found herself telling stories of founder's Daisy Low's life instead of using prepared speeches. Taking this as an omen, Camille joined her local storytelling guild and then---everything clicked! She knew she finally must be grown up, because she finally knew what she wanted to be!

Camille tells all sorts of stories - multicultural, spooky, legends, fairytales - to people of all ages in libraries and schools, for civic groups and at social events. She researches and writes original historical stories that fit into the junior high school curriculum. Her programs are flexible and can be tailored to fit your needs. "Could Be Worse!" is Camille's personal motto and typifies her outlook on life.
