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 graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2021 with a bachelor’s in communications. She joined WUOT's news team in June 2022. Since then, she has delivered local, state and regional news to listeners on All Things Considered every weekday afternoon.
