Hi LBP community,

First off, i would like to express my gratitude for everyone who has shared, posted, emailed, tweeted, talked about this project. Thank you so, so, so much. We have gotten emails from storytellers all over the country. Please keep sharing the Call for Stories so LBP can reach as many storytellers as possible.

I also wanted to share with you where we have confirmed storytellers (people who have confirmed they are willing to share their stories). We also have many more storytellers who have not confirmed yet or are unable to share their stories (for many, many reasons). LBP will work to get to as many of these places as we can in 2017.

Albany, NY
Ames, Iowa
Atlanta, GA
Berkeley, CA
Des Moines, Iowa

Lansing, MI
Los Angeles, CA

Please keep sharing about this project in general (we can travel to anywhere in the U.S.) and especially with any people you might know in or near any of the places listed above.

Endless gratitude and love,

Mia
