About the event

Everyone has a story to tell, from a funny anecdote to a life-changing event. These stories, and the way you tell them, can inspire change on the campaign trail as well.

Join a panel of experienced, fluent storytellers – Callie Khouri, Academy Award Winning writer for Thelma and Louise and Rob Kutner, multiple Emmy Award Winning writer for The Daily Show – as they go over using your story to motivate action.

From understanding your audience and their motivations to figuring out which emotions you want to convey, you’ll walk away with your questions answered and a ready-to-tell story for the trail. Moderated by screenwriter Roger Wolfson, you’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have while hearing from these industry leaders.
