edit data

George Mitchell lived for most of his life in Atlanta, Georgia. Mitchell is the author of nine documentary books with photographs, his most recent hardback being MISSISSIPPI HILL COUNTRY BLUES 1967. He considers his major work to be his recently published ebook, RONDA: AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT OF A SOUTHERN STREET PROSTITUTE, Volumes One and Two, which, during his summer breaks and his spare time, he spent 33 years writing.

He has worked as a newspaper reporter and editor, a counselor and street-worker stationed in Atlanta’s hippie district, a folklorist specializing in recording blues musicians for record albums, and as a high school photography teacher.

He now lives in his infant-hood home of Fort Myers, Florida, with his wife, Cathy.
