- Description
- Ruth Campbell was never one to be typecast. She was a woman of many interests who packed a lot of living, and a lot of helping others, in her 80 years. Mrs. Campbell was known for many different things, by many different people depending on the part of her life one chooses to study. She was a person who laid claim to many firsts. Inside the sturdy walls of then-Mississippi ETV (now Mississippi Public Broadcasting), Mrs. Campbell in the 1970s broke through barriers that made her one of Mississippi’s best-known personalities. She shattered the glass ceiling and took the walls down with her.
Mrs. Campbell, who despised labels and being told what she couldn’t do, died Friday, March 27, after a long battle with cancer. It was her fifth battle with cancer, and she beat the disease every single time before finally succumbing to it after another valiant fight.
