Onawumi Jean Moss is storyteller, narrator, keynote speaker, and author. The performances of this talking book and rhythm master encourage pride of heritage, appreciation of cultural differences and recognition of kinship. Her narratives, lectures, workshops, voiceovers, and keynotes contain extraordinary dramatic expression, inspirational a cappella music, soulful rhythms and improvisation techniques. Her programs enliven the study of history, culture, social sciences, language arts, and performance techniques. She will perform with William & Mary?s Botetourt Chamber Singers under the direction of Jamie Bartlett, accompanied by Deborah Hudson on the piano.
