  • Marcia Edwards
    NNoottee WWoorrtthhyy A publication of The Wednesday Morning Music Club (Austin) Website: musicclubaustin.org Jan. 18, 2017 WMMC - Member Highlight – Marcia Edwards My two brothers and I grew up on a farm in central Illinois with a Shetland pony, a collie, and one black and white spotted cat. In 2nd grade, I began piano lessons with the woman who was our Methodist Church organist and our elementary school music teacher. My mother was not a musician, but she made sure that we practiced regularly. In high school, I was asked to accompany the school chorus. I also played piano with the jazz band and for my senior class production of “Oklahoma.” In addition, I played clarinet in the high school concert and marching bands. My undergraduate major at the University of Illinois was French, and I was fortunate to be able to spend my junior year living with a French family and studying in Grenoble and then Rouen. When I returned from France, I decided instead of teaching French to teach English as a 2nd Language. I attended UCLA for a master’s degree in TESL. Then I moved to Houston for a teaching job at the U of H. It was in Houston that I met George. My officemate at the U of H fixed me up with him on a blind date. A year and a half later, we were married at the Rice University Chapel. George introduced me to backpacking on our honeymoon in Glacier Park, Montana. This summer we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary in Santa Fe with a surprise party arranged by our children.

Residents proudly "Keep Austin Weird" in the 78704 zip code while neighborhoods like Travis Heights, Barton Hills and Bouldin Creek reflect highly diverse personalities: you'll discover historic homes next to modern architecture featured in magazines. A progressive, creative, personality-packed part of town, find folks who grow their own food, ride bikes to the neighborhood bar (many of Austin's "it" bars reside on the east side) and enjoy weekend farmers' markets. With a slower pace than downtown–but only a short bike ride away–this delightfully diverse area of kind folks and hip businesses is also growing into one of Austin's favorite places to hang out.
