Anita Ponder President of Macon City Council
As President of the Macon City Council, Anita Ponder is the first female to serve in that capacity and has done so for 8 years. She is also Director of Education at the historic Tubman Museum, the largest museum of its kind in the Southeast. Anita has always been committed to the revitalization to all of Macon's historic district, especially downtown Macon. For the past 10 years, "Anita Ponder & Friends" has hosted the "Holiday Feast For All" on Christmas Day, feeding over 1200 of our city's hungry and homeless population. In 2006, Anita was selected by "The History Makers," a Chicago-based organization that selects individuals to be documented based on their contribution to history and society as a whole.
