Barbara “Bo” Bryant brings to the Foundation Board the valuable perspective of those who have lived in Franklin for generations. A seventh generation Maconian, Bo was born and raised in Franklin. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Business from Western Carolina University and is currently employed as an Account Executive and Event Planner with PRemiere Marketing. She and her husband, Edward, the co-owner of Macon Appliance Mart in Franklin, reared their only daughter Bridget in a town they know and love. Bo was actively involved with the Macon County School system where she volunteered in many different capacities. Keenly interested in the well being of the youth in Macon County, she served on the Macon County Academic Foundation and its Advisory Board for eight years and still found time to be a Girl Scout leader and volunteer. Bo is a charter member of the Century Club and brings a sense of continuity with her service to the Foundation for Angel Medical Center.

“I want to see AMC continue to grow and prosper and to offer the best possible health care to the people of Macon County. Supporting the Foundation is one of the best ways we can all work to see this happen.”

Bo is a member of St. Agnes Episcopal Church and has served on the Vestry. Having held all leadership offices, she continues as a member of Beta Sigma Phi, an international women’s group. Bo is working to preserve our downtown and its history working tirelessly as a Board Member for the Streets of Franklin and Main Street organization. In her spare time, she enjoys painting, reading and traveling.
