Upon the retirement of Angela Wampler, who led the A! Magazine team for nearly 20 years, Leslie Grace joined A! Magazine for the Arts as its new writer/art director.
She has more than a decade of public relations and marketing experience, working at The Corporate Image, Virginia Intermont College and the Washington County Public Library in Abingdon, Va.
Prior to that, Grace worked at the Washington County News and Honaker Publications.
She holds bachelor's and master's degrees in classics from Emory & Henry College and the University of Mississippi.
The July A! Magazine is her first issue, and she hopes that you enjoy it and celebrate the arts.
