"The fact is that we human beings speak the same language. And the language that we speak is the language of storytelling." --Harold Scheub
The Man with 10,000 Tales
"Harold Scheub first went to South Africa on a safari of sorts. In 1967, at the height of apartheid, Scheub--an earnest Midwestern twenty-something with a stint in the Air Force under his belt and a freshly awarded Master's degree in English -- packed a rucksack and hopped a bus for the backcountry. But instead of guns and ammo, he was armed with a bulky tape recorder and D batteries. Scheub wasn't after big game trophies; he was on the hunt for stories." What would it be like to take a walk in Scheub's shoes? Get to know the man with 10,000 tales, in this inspiring interview.
