Ellouise Schoettler

A professional storyteller for nearly twenty years, Ellouise Schoettler was reared in NC listening to her family spin tales about each other on the front porch.

Today Ellouise creates a new Front Porch experience where entertainment meets Cultural Preservation, and awakens her audiences to the importance of their own personal and family stories.

Ellouise's surprising combinations of original tales, traditional stories and history give voice to the uncommon experience of ordinary men and women throughout American history. Voices that would otherwise never be heard become stories audiences remember.
