We want to wrap up our February by sitting down with one of the recent Governor Arts Awards winners. Jane C. Hiatt served as a staple in the Mississippi arts community for decades. She was the executive director of The Arts Alliance of Jackson & Hinds County for four years and the Mississippi Arts Commission for six. With the University Press of Mississippi, Hiatt helped create the Hiatt Fund of the Community Foundation for Mississippi with her generous donations. The Hiatt Fund supports works of scholarly merit that meet the high standards of University Press of Mississippi and can be appreciated by a general audience. 

Marshall Ramsey, a nationally recognized, Emmy award winning editorial cartoonist, shares his cartoons and travels the state as Mississippi Today's Editor-At-Large. He's also host of a "Now You're Talking" on MPB Think Radio and "Conversations" on MPB TV, and is the author of several books. Marshall is a graduate of the University of Tennessee and a 2019 recipient of the University of Tennessee Alumni Professional Achievement Award.
