Happy Birthday, Kathryn Windham!


Happy Birthday to Selma's most famous tale teller!

Kathryn Tucker Windham is 92 today.

I took this picture of her two years ago when the whole town celebrated her 90th at the library. Kathryn started her writing career as a reporter and later became famous for her ghost stories. She's authored many other books about Selma and the South, as well as publishing beautiful photographs and delectable recipes. But she may be best known as a nationally acclaimed tale teller. And at 92, she still writes and speaks!
