This Month's Features: Tahira & Sue O'halloran 

Susan O’Halloran explores the complex issues of social justice. She is author of four books and producer of performances, videos and films including Black, White and Brown: Tribes & Bridges at the Steppenwolf Theatre and More Alike Than Not: Stories of Three Americans – Catholic, Jewish and Muslim. The Chicago Reader says O’Halloran “has mastered the Irish art of telling stories that are funny and heart-wrenching at the same time.” More at http://susanohalloran.com

TAHIRA grew up in a house overflowing with stories. Her home, of four generations of family, included her grandparents who were married for 72 years. It was during these formative years, TAHIRA learned the best way to get attention was to tell a well-crafted story that leaves your audience asking questions.
