About Miss Ann Barnes

Born April 4, 1921, in Perry, Florida, joining my two brothers. Our family moved to Gainesville when I was nine months old then to Orlando in 1930. Attended Orlando Senior High and graduated in 1939. I stayed single by choice. Being a daughter, a sister, and an aunt, I was called on a lot, happily so. Family members made choosing a model easy with their willingness and understanding to model for my goal. Being alive to the beauty and wisdom of what God has made is constantly learning art. I’ll always be a student.
