Peggy Gargis

Retired and not available for freelance work.

Based in the Birmingham area.

Peggy Gargis' career was bookended by her first love: print news. After a brief stint at her hometown newspaper, Gargis spent two decades in medical editing and technical writing. From 2003-2012, as a stringer for Reuters (Thomson Reuters), she covered corporate and political corruption trials, church arsons, and natural disasters, among other Alabama news.

​

We have meetings on the second Thursday in January, February, May, June, July, August, September, and November. During these meetings, we hear from renowned industry experts who provide helpful information and skills training. Monthly meetings also provide networking opportunities and encouragement from others in the communications field.

 

​AMP Members can attend monthly meetings for free. Non-members can attend for a fee of $5. In April, we have our annual Communications Contest Awards Banquet where our communications contest winners are announced, our Communicator of Achievement is recognized and new officers are installed.

 

​In October and March, we hold intensive professional-development workshops. In December we host a holiday party.
