Hi – I’m Ginger. I document vernacular and visionary art and art environments, and study Southern folkways, currently documenting 100+ Alabama graveshelters. Besides those things, I like to share recipes and visits to fab restaurants, museums, and hotels.
Married to the best person I’ve ever known, we are just smitten with our two sons who are 15 months apart. They are active in youth groups and school activities and one will be competing in sports in Israel this summer while the other will be a camp counselor for kids with disabilities.
I’ve had two careers: first as CPO from a subsidiary spinoff of IMAX, then once I decided to return to an office setting when my boys were old enough to go to school, I became Creative Director at a magazine which is crazy fun.
We split our time between Birmingham and New Orleans though call anywhere we are ‘home’. I grew up a small-town girl and am the 7th generation of my family born in Alabama.
Family and volunteering are my heart: in 2023-24 Leadership Birmingham, currently chapter president of Hadassah, on the board of the Scottsboro Boys Museum, on four other community boards and a national board, a member of Junior League Birmingham and a 2023 Provisional of the Year, lead an adventure group (think kayaking to cooking class to pickleball), and do other community engagement activities. Have a good project? Let’s hear!
And I’m so happy you’re at DFK today.
