A conversation with StoryCorps president and founder Dave Isay
The United Theatre and Literacy Volunteers of Washington County is delighted to invite you for StoryCorps: A Conversation with Dave Isay at the United Theatre in Westerly, RI on July 26, 2024.

These recordings are collected in the U.S. Library of Congress and StoryCorps’ digital archive, which is now the largest single collection of human voices ever gathered.
Dave Isay, founder of StoryCorps, has won six Peabody Awards, a MacArthur “Genius” Fellowship, and the 2015 TED Prize for his work.
