Professional Storyteller, National Story Consultant, Ensemble Storytelling Coach/Mediator, Teacher, Professor, Author

Over a span of more than 20 years, Kevin Cordi has traveled the world as a professional storyteller; having spoken to audiences from more than 40 states and five countries, including England, Canada, Japan, Scotland and Singapore, he has committed his career toward enriching the creative minds of not only today's youth, but adults as well.

Beginning his journey as one of the youngest professional storytellers in the country, he had the distinction of being the first full-time high school storytelling teacher in the country - a job he held for 11 years.

While Cordi has achieved a lot in his career - founding the Youth, Educators and Storytellers Special Interest Group in Storytelling, co-authoring "Raising Voices: Youth Storytelling Groups and Troupes," and teaching a course this upcoming fall on Applied Storytelling at Ohio Dominican University where he currently works as an assistant professor - this storyteller's story begins with a young boy and a love for tales.
