"The Oak and the Reed" storyteller (5)

I believe the answer is:

aesop

(Other definitions for aesop that I've seen before include "classic author" , "Greek fabulist (Tortoise and the Hare)" , "Poses as ancient Greek writer" , "Fable-teller" , "Ancient Greek author of moral tales" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
