Heart for the People

from today's Tennessean:

'Heart for the People' fills Room In The Inn Leader:

From volunteer to executive director, Hester is advocate for city's homeless

By SYLVIA SLAUGHTER
Staff Writer


Though she studied interior design, Rachel Hester calls her office decor "secondhand chic."
She means clutter, unsophisticated clutter, from a dime-store Mickey Mouse to hand-me-drawn cards from the men and women she shields from their detractors and bawls out when she catches them lighting up a bong outside her window.

For longer than a year now, Hester has been executive director of Room in the Inn's Campus for Human Development, a way-station for the homeless.

And have you joined the Pac Man Fan Club yet?
