Appalachian fairy tales highlight women's cultural power

University of Tennessee Press

Author Stacy Sivinski talks with WUOT's Jacqui Sieber about Sivinski's book, "Fairy Tales of Appalachia", the role of women and gender balance in Appalachian folklore, and how their stories have been adapted through history.

Jacqui was born and raised in Pittsburgh. She graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2021 with a bachelor’s in communications. Outside of work, she likes to go to baseball games, walk dogs at her local animal shelter, and hike.
