Cindy Sheffield Michaels, a native Mississippian, received a BA in Spanish from Hendrix College in Arkansas and an MA in English from Georgia State University. She is an editor who loves her job, and the attention to detail it requires has rubbed off on her photography: her current focus is macro compositions. Michaels is a member of Women in Focus, Atlanta Photography Group, and Atlanta Photography Exhibit Inc. Michaels lives in Decatur, Georgia, with her always-supportive husband, bassist Darren Michaels, whose patience for her photographic endeavors knows no end.
Michaels's photographs have been shown in exhibits in Atlanta and other cities, have been published in print and online, and are in private collections throughout the South.

2011
July 23, 2011, 5pm–8pm
Wierd West Saloon's Trading Post Market, The Solarium at Historic Scottish Rite, Decatur, GA
Note: The July 23 art sale will likely be my last show of 2011. My husband and I are preparing for our first child, due in September, and I do not want to schedule any more shows when I'm not sure I will be able to participate in them. I MIGHT participate in a holiday show, but that's up in the air. Hopefully I'll get in gear and be in more shows in 2012!
5, 2011, 10am–5pm
Artist Studio Sale, Decatur Holiday Inn and Conference Center
