What People Are Saying

“Linda has a wonderful affinity for the character (Isabella Bird), and makes her come alive so convincingly that audiences of adults and children can relate to Isabella’s struggles and her success at achieving her goals despite the many obstacles she encounters. Her own personal experiences of climbing are a great asset in discussions and questions from the audience.”

-- Evelyn Kaye

"She is great at conveying a love for the art of storytelling as well as her passion for her program material. She piqued my curiosity about people like Isabella Bird and Doc Suzie, and I almost feel as if I’d met them in person now! I never thought I’d be so interested in such places as Bhutan and Mongolia."
