We are proud to welcome back nationally acclaimed storyteller, singer/songwriter and entertainer, Michael Reno Harrell, to the Northern Lights Santa Academy.

Michael's stories have been published in magazines including the industry standard, “Storytelling Magazine”. He has conducted storytelling and songwriting workshops across America and performed at festivals and in concerts in forty-four states and seven foreign countries over the past fifty plus years.

Michael's natural knack for storytelling, in print, song and spoken word has earned him praise from not only the music community but from the literary and storytelling worlds as well. Michael is a regular featured teller at the National Storytelling Festival and has been Teller-In-Residence at the International Storytelling Center on numerous occasions.

Michael has published two volumes of short stories, recorded nineteen collections of stories and music and released two live DVDs. His recordings have for years received and continue to garner awards in Country, Americana and Folk circles. His humor and wit, as well as the emotional depth of his work, keep his fan base growing and staying tuned in for whatever comes next.
