Martha Rivers Ingram’s Lasting Legacy | Nashville News
Description
Nashville mourns the loss of Martha Rivers Ingram, a visionary force behind the city’s cultural heartbeat, who passed at 90. A savvy businesswoman who led Ingram Industries after her husband’s death, she also shaped major corporations and championed arts institutions like the Tennessee Performing Arts Center and Tennessee Repertory Theatre. Her legacy echoes through Vanderbilt’s Board of Trust, where she chaired for over a decade, and in the Martha Rivers Ingram Center for the Performing Arts. She helped build the Schermerhorn Symphony Center and earned a star on the Music City Walk of Fame — leaving behind a vibrant cultural legacy and a family of four children and many grandchildren.
