Diane's Recordings
Knick Knack Paddy Whack
Ages 3 & up
Playful rendering of stories and songs for young children--and their parents! Erik Pearson on banjo
and guitar.
These songs and stories have been passed from generation to generation. I grew up hearing and singing most of these songs. As a storyteller, one of my main goals is to contribute in any way I can to the rejuvenation of storytelling and singing as a part of everyday life.

Favorite Stories
Ages 6 & up
Backed by drums, banjo, flute, and songs
Very popular mixture of African, African American, and other folktales. These stories burst with laughter and suspense, as well as lessons for children, (and adults), that have withstood the test of time.

Sapelo: Time is Winding Up
Ages 8 & up
Tales from a Georgia Sea Island Backed by singers and drums. On January 16, 1865, General Sherman issued Special Field Order #15, ceding most of the islands in Georgia and South Carolina to the former slaves. This tape is a recording of the one-woman show Diane developed from the stories of the elderly descendants of those former slaves, who are still living on Sapelo Island.

Yes M'am, Respect for the Elders
Ages 9 & up
Accompanied by Erik Pearson on banjo and guitar, and by students from Meadows Livingstone School in San Francisco.
Respect for the elders is what I learned from my parents and grandparents as a child. I believe respect for others and respect for self begins with the choices we make in how we meet, greet, and talk to each other. Included are stories from African American folk tales, personal stories, fables, and even a Langston Hughes short story.
