The Monti

September 3, 2012

Jeff Polish spent years doing genetics research and he eventually went into teaching, but all along the way he maintained a deep love for good storytelling. In 2008, Jeff’s growing fascination with personal stories told by interesting people led him to form The Monti. It’s a non-profit whose mission is to create community through the telling of stories, from the hilarious to the tragic and everything in between. Each month Jeff invites ordinary folks to tell their stories without notes in front of an audience. Coming up Friday night, September 14, at 8:00p.m., it’s The Monti season opener at The Arts Center, 300-G East Main Street in Carrboro. On the bill will be Daniel Wallace, Jill McCorkle, Lisa Mecham and Carter Kersh. In the meantime, Monti founder Jeff Polish sat down with TAUC host David Ford.
