STORYTELLING DINNER
Maine Island Storyteller visits Corner House Inn
The Corner House Inn welcomes Bill Hinderer of Peaks Island, Maine to its Storytelling Dinner Program on Thursday evening, Nov. 3rd. Bill is a husband, father, grandfather, retired chef, and armed service veteran. He was born into a storytelling family and has been performing professionally before groups large and small for twenty five years. Bill likes to say: “Because I was a terrible student I have been telling stories all my life. My best stories were reasons my school work was not done!”
On Nov. 3rd Bill will be telling three stories centered around the upcoming holiday season.
“Why the Jack-O-Lantern was Invented in Maine” is his Halloween tale. Bill touches upon Thanksgiving with his story “How to Cook a Shag”, and Christmas Day in Vietnam will come to life with a story entitled “Homemade Christmas Cookies”.
Bill has performed as a feature teller at the Three Apple Festival in Bedford, MA; at well-known Brother Blues in Cambridge, MA; and at open mic’s
of M.O.O.S.E. (Maine
Organization Of Storytelling
Enthusiasts). He is also the
only storyteller to have
performed at the Vietnam
Veteran’s Memorial in
Washington, DC.
When he’s not
traveling around New England
telling stories, Bill resides on
Peaks Island, Maine (about 3
miles offshore of Portland) with
his wife of forty years, three
cats, a garden and lots of
fishing poles.

storyteller’s Corner House
