Bobbie Siegal has a passion for promoting inclusiveness, respect and mutual understanding among people from different backgrounds. Bobbie’s lifetime goal and work has been to teach and engage young people to help them appreciate their own value and dignity and to instill in them a sense of empathy and compassion for others. She has devoted a large part of her life toward teaching and has taught at UAB, Mountain Brook High School, and Tuscaloosa County Junior High.
Through her teaching and her volunteering, Bobbie has tried to foster cross-cultural relations so that our society can appreciate our diversity rather than be threatened by it. She has been an advisor of Camp Anytown, has served on numerous boards and has been honored by NCCJ, Girl Scouts of America.
Bobbie feels blessed to have had the opportunity to give back to her community and to have the love and support of her husband of 55 years, Don, and her 2 children and 5 grandchildren.
Bobbie has received many honors, the most recent being selected as a 2016 recipient of Positive Maturity’s “The Top 50 Over 50” in central Alabama.
