Bios of our amazing cast:

Lydia Hamilton Polaski, originally from the Silicon Valley, is wicked proud to call South Boston her home. After earning a Master of Communication Management from the University of Southern California (Fight On!), she decided to spend time with local nonprofits building their brand and reputation in the community. Correspondingly, she also plans local events ranging in size from 50 to 5,000. For all that is being developed in South Boston, she is most concerned about conserving the health of the neighborhood, which is why she has touch-points to so many local causes. Lydia also serves on the board of the South Boston MOMS Club, is actively involved in Girl Scouts, and Hub Church South Boston. Most importantly, she is mother to Yves (4) and wife to architectural designer, Chris.

Stacie Sosinski lives on Long Island with her two lively children, supportive husband, equally adoring dog and two mildly interested cats. She has a BA in Education and an MA in History which have enabled her to teach for the last 14 years. Since she has spent most of her adult life thinking about the pasts of others, she thought it was time to consider her own. She regularly tells stories in her classroom, but her audience is mandated to attend. Expressing Motherhood will, therefore, be her first official storytelling experience.
