The ancient tale of Scheherazade is about a storyteller.
She saved her own life, and many more, by telling stories to a tyrannical king for a thousand nights.
The story resonates with Portland storyteller Will Hornyak, who tells stories in prisons and many other venues, firmly believing that storytelling can change lives. He brings his talents to several cities in the region this week, and visits the studio to share stories and approaches to storytelling.
