<h2>THE MOTH</h2>The Moth – hailed as “New York’s hottest and hippest literary ticket” by The Wall Street Journal – is an acclaimed not-for-profit organization dedicated to the art and craft of storytelling. In its twenty-year history, The Moth has presented more than 35,000 stories, told live and without notes, by people from all walks of life to standing-room-only crowds worldwide. The Moth Podcast is downloaded more than 52 million times a year, and The Peabody Award-winning The Moth Radio Hour, airs weekly on more than 475 public radio stations nationwide.
