ABOUT THE SPEAKER
An internationally celebrated Storyteller and Teaching Artist, Carrie Sue Ayvar is the recipient of multiple awards recognizing her service and leadership and her dedication to the art of storytelling and education. She learned her love of history and the art of storytelling from her grandparents here in Florida before moving to Mexico as a teenager. As a Chautauqua Scholar, she intensely researched first-person historical portrayals that present compelling and exciting opportunities to “meet” some extraordinary women who impacted their communities and the history of Florida. Returning to Florida in 1979, she now lives in the very same house where she first learned to tell stories. Her bilingual blend of traditional, historical & personal tales connect the people, languages, and cultures of Florida. She still believes, just as her grandfather told her, “If you don’t know the trees you may be lost in the forest, but if you don’t know the stories you may be lost in life.”
