Tom Johnson, who was mentored by the late Anderson, says it means the world to him to be able to provide students with the opportunities he’s had.  Tom Johnson and his wife Edwina Johnson are contributors to the Peyton Anderson Scholarships to help journalists have the chance to study at Grady College. Grady wants this room to inspire leadership and paying it forward from your mentors.
