Biography & Author's Journey
Kindra Hall’s development as a storyteller began, by her own telling, in the spring of 1992, when a fifth-grade language arts assignment led her to set aside a book and narrate the story directly to a room of restless third-graders. The response revealed the persuasive power of live narrative and became the defining early turning point in her career. Hall later graduated from Concordia College in 2003, where she was active in forensics, and earned a master’s degree in communications and media studies from New Mexico State University, conducting research on storytelling’s role in organizational socialization.
