We are pleased to announce that First Lady Donna Edwards will be joining the line-up for the 2017 TLSM Impact Luncheon. Mrs. Edwards is wife to current Louisiana Governor, John Bel Edwards, her high school sweetheart. She was born in Meridian, Mississippi to loving, hard-working parents. She moved around a bit, as a child due to her father’s job, and ultimately landed in Amite, Louisiana, where she met John Bel. She is a graduate of University of Southern Mississippi, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. She is a mother to three children and lover of the state of Louisiana and its people. She is a former music teacher of nine years. Honored to be Louisiana’s First Lady, Mrs. Edwards spends her days conducting meetings, making public appearances, giving speeches, and much more, where she shares her passion for education, women’s issues, and a variety of issues relevant to the lives of Louisianans. Noting that Louisiana is ranked second in the nation in single-parent led households, the challenges single parents face are important to Mrs. Edwards.
