Vickie Martin
Vickie was born in Atlanta, grew up in Marietta, and currently resides in

them. A graduate of the University of Georgia, she has an ABJ with a major
in film.
She is a life-long volunteer, volunteering for Habitat for Humanity (she was
trained as a supervisor and has worked on as many as 15 houses) and giving
historical tours of Atlanta for the Atlanta Preservation Center, are ways
Vickie stays active in the city she loves. She currently gives the tour of
the Fox Theater. Vickie has long been employed in the field of advertising,
placing media on television, radio and cable.
