Ginann grew up in North Little Rock and Searcy, Arkansas, and attended Harding Academy and Harding University.

As a librarian she has seen many changes in the Sherwood community and the library. Her favorite aspect of librarianship is the children.

Under her leadership, the Amy Sanders Library has seen tremendous growth in its Summer Reading Program, she helped facilitate a recent new building opening, and has created a micro library store within the branch.
Her dedication to the city and community knows no bounds; she is passionate about her job and how it relates to the community.
