Katie Liesner

This professional storyteller engages us with the struggle between two red beasts: the devil and love. Liesener tells a tale of her deeply religious German-Lutheran family and how they’ve run from the devil for generations – since the Lieseners who sailed across the Atlantic seeking religious freedom. Through disaster and heartache, they’ve fended off the devil with dogma. But an unexpected turn of events pits their vision of heaven and hell against Liesener’s vision of love and loneliness.
