Carol Gebert - Life Of A Storyteller

Carol Gebert, a local storyteller and a lifelong teacher, sat down with me to have a conversation about her life and unexpected career as a storyteller. Growing up on farm in rural Indiana with a large family, she experience the different dynamics of her parents as her family grew. With the choice of either becoming a nurse or a teacher, given to her by her hard working father, she set out on the path of becoming a teacher. After years of lining up her toys creating an environment of structure, she knew it was a natural desire.Gebert found a love for theatre and art, teaching in many diverse classrooms throughout several states. When faced with many challenges in the classroom, she turned them into personal growth and unconditional love for her students. It is these moments she looks back on in hopes that she made a difference in the lives of her students, and I have a feeling she did. Gebert has an ability to pull an audience in and anyone in her presence for that matter. She fell into storytelling after taking a class with a friend and the moment she was a able to take a story to an expected place, she knew she wanted to pursue this artform.  It doesn’t take long to realize the depth in which a story can go. For Gebert, she designs a story that will capture the hearts of all ages. She shares her tips on creating a set list of stories and how to craft the elements of what makes an enchanting story to help others develop their art.
