Ingrid Sheldon, 1993

 

In this episode, AADL talks to Ingrid Sheldon. Ingrid was Ann Arbor's mayor from 1993-2000. She was Ann Arbor's last Republican mayor and is remembered as a politician who did not stick strictly to party lines. Ingrid has also been a long time active member of the Ann Arbor volunteer and philanthropy communities who transitioned to politics after her involvement in the Ann Arbor Jaycees. She tells us about growing up in Ann Arbor township and attending its one room school, her appreciation for meeting and working with a diversity of people throughout the community, and her notable accomplishments.
