- About Me:
- I fell in love with storytelling seventeen years ago at the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival. Since then I have developed storytelling programs for children to adults and particularly enjoy storytelling in first person as Zion's poetess Eliza R. Snow, Mother Spencer from Orderville, and patriotic Betsy Ross. When I'm not portraying historical characters, I often go by Suzanna Banana, a childhood name given to me by my brother. Now I get to torment him by telling my version of our family stories!!

I talked to Carol and she said of what she remembers of her Mother's research on William Snow, is that he was some cousin from an earlier ancestor of Lorenzo's. She thought she remembered that he came to Utah with some of the first wave of immigrants. Married to Ann Rogers sometime after that. We actually visited the farm near Amroth in Wales that Ann's family came from and found the old foundations along with several of the features in her diary. The're an interesting bunch, Carol had a great aunt that danced with one of the Hole-in-the-Wall gang at a community dance in Monticello. Many of them still farm and work there through out Monticello, Bicknell and Blanding, the area that William was sent to colonize.

It was great to come by the chapter meeting and get reaquainted with everyone. I hope my wife and I can make next month's meeting. I think she told me her family in Monticello, and Bicknell in southern Utah are descended from William Snow a brother of Lorenzo's, married to Ann Rogers of Pembrookshire. I put that Railroad Bishop story on my page under the blogs.
Sincerely,
Dave Sharp
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm glad to be part of your site. "Professional storyteller" could be a great topic of discussion. I consider myself a professional for several reasons, including the fact I am paid for many of my performances; however, I do not make my living as a storyteller. I hope this site is open for all variations of "professional" storytellers. Hugs, Suzanne
