In fact, it was in kindergarten that Davis decided she would make her impact as an educator. “Kindergarten was magical for me, but I’m a nurturing person, so I think I just enjoyed that age group,” said Davis, while sitting in a neat, brightly lit preschool classroom surrounded by colorful chil- dren’s books, toys and framed drawings. “Five-year-olds are just so magical; their imaginations are flowing, they’re sweet, kind, eager to learn, and eager to please and explore. That’s just who I am. I have always been deeply attracted to the energy of children and what they bring to the world. I love watching them grow and listening to their stories.” The same innocence and wonder that Davis remembers as a child continues to guide her path today.

Tripp, Ph.D., Davis is teaching the next generation of scholars to soar; and she is forever grateful for the impact her Spelman professors had on her life. “Professor Farris was the highlight of my Spelman experience because I loved talking to her and learning from her wisdom, and Dr. Tripp brought new life to the curriculum that gave it a modern touch,” she said. Tripp, who is now an associate profes- sor in elementary education at Auburn University, said she always knew Davis would become a stellar teacher. “As a student, Amber-Joy was very conscientious, motivated, and interested in being a change agent in teacher edu- cation,” Tripp said. “I’m really proud of her. It takes a strong, motivated and determined woman to open her own preschool. The mere fact that she took a seed and planted it shows how much she has blossomed. With that mindset, I knew she would be successful.” As for what is next for Davis, she says her goal is for A Joyous Playce to eventually move to its own building and become one of the best preschools in the Southeast. Calling her home-based preschool a “dream come true,” Davis remains focused on teaching and shaping young children’s minds. “I really want the world to be a better place, and it has to start with children,” she said.

She painted on weekends, holidays and late nights. Painting late nights meant she and her close friend, author and illustrator Calida Garcia Rawles, C’98, had to find a way to bypass the Spelman art studio’s 9 p.m. closing time. They accomplished this by hiding in the restrooms until security made their rounds. “They would go to the bathroom clos- est to the elevator and stand on the toilet bowls in the stalls,” Lindsay laughed as he retold the story he learned after the women graduated. “They stayed there until they could hear the ding of the eleva- tor when the security guard was leav- ing. They then returned to the painting studio, working until the wee hours of the morning.” It is this laser focus and perseverance that has resulted in Sherald’s success. She returned to Spelman College in February to discuss her exhibition at the Spelman College Museum of Fine Art, which is on display until May 18. Museum visitors were enamored with Sherald’s bright, stylized and fantastical portraitures of African-American life.

36 » SPELMAN MESSENGER Donor Roll 2018

Fiscal Year 2018 (July 1, 2017, through June 30, 2018) was a record fundraising year for Spelman College. More than $45.6 million was raised. We are grateful for the generosity of each of our contributors and several new leadership gifts and commitments of more than $500,000 were made. These gifts help execute the strategic goals of Delivering the Spelman Promise, Elevating the Spelman Difference, Enhancing Operational Excellence, and Pro- moting Academic Innovation. Delivering the Spelman Promise – to ensure that no student is forced to suspend her education because she lacks the financial resources – is our No. 1 objective. These four objectives work hand in hand to uphold Spelman College’s standard of excellence. Please join us in thanking the FY 2018 Leadership Donors.
