Ellen Davis graduated from Samford last year after the successful pursuit of a major in history. As an undergraduate, she put together an impressive array of research, including work with the oral history program at Red Mountain Park in Birmingham and participation on the team for the PBS documentary on the Freedom Rides of 1961, which will air nationwide tonight. She teaches at Cornerstone School in Woodlawn, where she makes a positive difference each day.
The world is better because of the intellect and compassion of Ellen Davis.
