Anne G’Fellers-Mason started as the Program Manager for the McKinney Center in December 2023 and has completely embraced every aspect of her job. Anne oversees the Story Initiative Program, which includes the monthly StoryTown Radio Show, the StoryTown Radio Show podcast, the story brigade, and other various projects.
Before being employed by the town, Anne would write monthly sections of the radio show called “Ask the Historian” which would feature historical stories from the area. Now that Anne has stepped into the role of Program Manager, she writes the script for the monthly radio show. She has some assistance from her writer’s group who turn in stories to feature in the radio show. Anne then casts up to twenty-five people in each show to make sure they each have a part that they will excel at. Anne directs the twenty-five-person cast while also being an integral part of the show herself. The radio show is recorded live to play on ETSU WETS and to be produced as a podcast. Anne will produce podcast episodes called “Director’s Cut” for any stories that were submitted but did not make it into the show.
