Pamela’s body of work consists of public speaking, captivating storytelling, spoken word, poetry, drama and humor for all ages. She enjoys facilitating imagination stretching and interactive workshops.
Her historic portrayals, and human-interest stories, have delighted and educated audiences at numerous venues, such as, libraries, schools, churches, senior centers, homes, private organizations and more.
Pamela’s colorful life, in the Mississippi Delta, with her parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins, gives her work a “southern flava”; however, audiences are inspired and can relate to their universal aroma.
Please contact her by phone, or email, if your event has a specific theme.
