Through words that flow like a grand river and images that take you to the heights of fancy, award-winning storyteller Regi Carpenter captures your imagination with a whisper, a roar, or a song. With a "voice that dances," Regi has the astonishing ability to whisk you away to the place where dreams are born.

Growing up on the St. Lawrence River in New York significantly impacted young Regi's life. Life on the river was anything but ordinary. Underwater tea parties in the summer and strolls across the water's icy dress in the winter give a child a unique perspective on life. Like the St. Lawrence River, there is more to Regi than meets the eye. Underneath churns an incredible force of energy that makes Regi one of the nation's leading storytellers. Swift and powerful or calm and gentle, Regi's storytelling is always a surprising adventure.

Since 1993, Regi has been featured at schools, libraries, museums, festivals, and family and community venues. She is at home with both children and adults and offers storytelling programs, workshops, and school residencies. A New York State certified teacher, Regi is adept at weaving the arts into the curriculum while fulfilling teaching standards. A nationally acclaimed performer and educator, Regi has received the Parents' Choice Gold Award, the Parent's Guide to Children's Media Award, and the Leonard Bernstein Fellowship for Artists in Education.
