Artist-Educator Facilitator
Daniel Richer
Teacher, student, actor, town crier and legend teller are all part of Daniel’s make-up. He has studied not only in Canada but also the U.S., France and Britain and everywhere else his feet have carried him..his quest for history has always been well served. For the past twenty-five years he has played on many stages and cried for many great events and even though he has been quite successful : an emptiness remained : finding his roots plus learning and sharing the First Nation tradition of oral communication.
He doesn’t limit himself to the Abenaki culture but loves to explore all of the tribes and Nations of North America, he also takes the time to learn about the people and their customs so that the tales can be seen in their proper colors.
Sometimes funny sometimes serious his shows have always been well received; proof being his successes in Canada, the States, Bermuda, Belgium and England.
