LINDA GOSS

Official Storyteller of Philadelphia/Award Winning Storyteller and Author

Mama Linda Goss is an award winning storyteller, author and visionary! She was born Linda Yvonne McNear into a storytelling family. She learned the art of storytelling while growing up near the foothills of the Smoky Mountains in an aluminum factory town named Alcoa, TN. During family gatherings, Linda would sit quietly and listen to her grandfather Murphy, her parents, aunts and uncles laugh, gossip and swap stories. Since then, Linda has gathered stories from personal experience and hundreds of folktales over decades of study and performance that fill her repertoire. She greets audiences wherever she goes with bells ringing and chanting, ‘Well, oh well, oh well! It’s Storytelling Time!’ Read More
