| Abstract |
Civil rights activist and educator Audrey Grevious was born on September 30, 1930 in Lexington, Kentucky. After earning her B.A. degree from Kentucky State University and her M.A. degree from Eastern Kentucky University, Grevious began teaching. Much of her career was divided between serving as principal at Kentucky Village and teaching in the Fayette County School District. Grevious was also president of the Lexington NAACP during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. Under her leadership, the group organized protests in conjunction with the Congress on Racial Equality. After retiring from teaching, Grevious served on the boards of numerous organizations including The Humanitarium, a group devoted to celebrating culture and diversity. She also remained an active member of the NAACP. She passed away on January 6, 2017 at age 86. |
