What’s Your Story? How do you get to be on The Moth? That’s a question Oanh Ngo Usadi has heard a lot and one she will answer in this program about her journey to appear on one of NPR’s most popular radio programs and podcasts. Many have tried to get on The Moth’s stage over the course of its 15-year history (including a MMT Library staff member!), but only a few succeed. Oanh will share how she found her unique storytelling voice and forged her path to becoming a repeat guest on The Moth. This program will inspire you to find your own superpower through the traditions of storytelling and memoir.
