Entertaining audiences in 47 states, 18 countries, and on 6 continents, Connie brings the wisdom, humor, and drama of stories to main-stage concert halls, schools, festivals, libraries, and the corporate world.
Throughout her trailblazing storytelling career, Connie helped to ignite and shape the American storytelling revival. She served as a founding board member of the National Storytelling Association (formerly NAPPS). Connie is a frequent host and featured performer at the International Storytelling Center in Jonesborough, Tennessee. She has the unique honor of being on stage at every National Storytelling Festival since its creation in 1973.
The Library of Congress bestowed on Connie the honor of an archival collection in her name. The U.S.’s national library now houses the Connie Regan-Blake Collection, which consists of papers, sound recordings, videos, photographs, and artifacts, documenting her 50+ year career and role in the birth of the American Storytelling Revival.
Today, Connie continues to tour as a performer and workshop leader around the world, as well as here in her beloved Western NC. She offers a series of original workshops and one-on-one coaching, available online via Zoom and in person in Asheville, NC. These workshops and personal sessions challenge participants, encourage them, and teach them how to find, develop, and tell their stories.
