“Her stories, like a family tree, draw webbed lines from the present deep into the past...with humor and gravity in the telling, Harvey strives to give voice to a contemporary Appalachian identity richer and more complex than any of the stereotypes about the region she loves.” — Blue Ridge Magazine
“Hannah is a wonderful wordsmith, an energetic and articulate teller, with a remarkable insight into the souls of her characters.” — Storytelling Festival of Carolina
“I live and work in Shanghai, China. I am a language curriculum designer and teachers trainer. I took Dr. Harvey’s course on The Great Courses. I enjoyed it and practiced Dr. Harvey’s storytelling methods in my class. It was magic. The most wonderful thing is I feel happy when I tell stories to students. My students listened well, so well that we all immersed as a whole.” —Emma Chen, Shanghai, China
