Famous Georgians
Note: Currently, biographical information about a
number of famous Georgians can be found in several different sites within
GeorgiaInfo, such as "This Day in
Georgia History" and "Georgia African-American
Culture and History." In the future, we hope to include in this location--classified
by category (e.g., political leaders, civil rights leaders, sports figures,
entertainers, etc.)--links to all sites associated with famous people
with a tie to Georgia.
