Donald Davis (storyteller)
Donald Davis (born 1944) is an American storyteller, author and minister. Davis had a twenty-year career as a minister before he became a professional storyteller. He has recorded over 25 storytelling albums and written several books based on those stories. His long career as a teller and his promotion of the cultural importance of storytelling through seminars and master classes has led to Davis being dubbed the "dean of storytelling".〔name="piddlers">(Piddlers Festival Brings a Crowd ) by Holli Keaton for the ''Troy Messenger'', January 26, 2008.
