ABOUT OUR TELLERS:
Don White brings laughter and tears as a storyteller-comedian-author-troubadour-folk singer-songwriter. There is no one-word description for what Don White does. His work is infused by experience as a husband, a father, a seeker, and a joker. He draws inspiration from his family, in a touching song about the circle of life or an uproarious story about dealing with his daughter. Don White is an odd fit in any medium: funny, sarcastic, sentimental. More about Don
