To her parents' astonishment and great relief, Evelyn finally spoke her first words at age two. She had waited until she could craft a meaningful, well-structured sentence, and she's been word-smithing ever since.

Evelyn's father suggested a career as a news writer after he read her 8th grade essay, "Cautious Clara," which described her mother's dangerously careful driving habits. Captivated by images of reporters dashing off one front-page story to another, Evelyn happily followed a straight line from high school newspaper editor to a Communications degree and a stint as broadcast editor for the Associated Press. She then moved to the other side of the desk, pitching corporate stories to the media, preparing clients for interviews and earning accreditation as a public relations counselor from the Public Relations Society of America.

By 1993 she was ready for a new challenge. Her coach recommended that she reframe her credentials by branding herself as The Corporate Storyteller, and that got her creative juices flowing again. Evelyn created the Corporate Storytelling seminar program and then developed a corporate-wide storytelling system. She has since delivered management communications services for all types and sizes of organizations, including Microsoft, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, World Vision, the International Storytelling Center, and Shell International.

Whether you lead a corporation, a governmental agency or a non-profit organization, Evelyn Clark's services will be customized to address your needs.
