In this month's Voices from the Archive, we're hearing from a familiar face: Mr. Carlos Turriate. Carlos was a participant in the McKinney Center's 2024 portrait exhibit, "Living Here." He was born in Lima, Peru; and moved to the US as a teen! In this episode, we'll learn about his upbringing, his travels, and his family.
Voices from the Archive is a monthly segment of StoryTown Radio. It shares stories from people living here, just how they told them. You might think of it like a news report that tells you about all sorts of things. From apple butter to ghost encounters, you could learn just about anything from the people living here in East Tennessee. Listen in as they tell the stories of their lives here in Appalachia.
StoryTown Radio is a production of the McKinney Center's Story Initiative. Grounded in the belief that stories connect people to each other, the Story Initiative sets out to collect, archive, and share the stories from the region. Broadcast from Jonesborough, Tennessee, the Storytelling Capital of the World, StoryTown Radio is one way these stories are shared with people, nearby and all around.
