She is the founder and executive director of the Susie King Taylor Women’s Institute & Ecology Center in Midway, Georgia, having moved there in 2018 from Atlanta to anchor its work in Susie King Taylor’s birthplace. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in History (with a minor in African American Studies) from Spelman College, and a Master of Arts in Heritage Conservation / Heritage Preservation from Georgia State University.
Hermina is widely recognized as the foremost and preeminent scholar in the United States on Susie King Taylor, the Civil War nurse and memoirist; she began her research into Taylor’s life in 2009 while working as associate director at Kennesaw State University’s Center for the Study of the Civil War Era. In 2019 Hermina received Georgia’s Governor’s Award for Arts and Humanities for her work preserving African American/Gullah Geechee history and culture. Her forthcoming epic on Susie King Taylor is highly anticipated in academic and public history circles.
