Myth in the Mojave

Stephen Gerringer: Myth, Landscape & Salmon Boy (Part 1 of 2)


Listen Later

Stephen Gerringer is one of the principle players (and I do mean play) at the Joseph Campbell Foundation, where he is captain of community outreach. He is also a fellow storyteller. 

In this two-part series, Stephen tells the Haida myth of Salmon Boy and shares his thoughts about mythology, landscape, Native American stories, science, and his mythic connection to Modesto. He also reflects on the connection between poetry and mythology, the song of the universe, and the source of a new myth.

This is marvelous stuff from a thoughtful myth-maker.
