Just thinking about Dr. Nellie Lewis evokes a heavy sigh. She was so dynamic. A respected educator and volunteer whose career spanned almost 50 years, with 17 of those in Washington, D.C. schools before coming to Dallas; she served as area Director for Learning Centers and Administrative Assistant to four DISD Superintendents, was past President – dr/NABSE (Dallas Chapter), and also worked with the Young Educators Group at Paul Quinn College. An inductee into the African American Educators Hall of Fame, she was born in Durham, NC and also enjoyed a stint working at Paul Quinn College.
