Mimi Sells

MIMI SELLS originally moved to San Diego in the 1970’s as a newly married, liberal arts graduate of SUNY Albany, subsisting on low wage jobs and government food surplus. Later, moving north to L.A. and then the Bay Area, she successfully pursued a decades-long marketing career for high tech and non-profit organizations and earned an MPA from USC along the way. In 2019, they returned to San Diego to enjoy life with two grandkids nearby. As a born New Yorker, Mimi has always loved the creative arts and the energy of vibrant communal spaces, becoming a founding member of the Vision Bird Rock Task Force to improve her local community. For over 10 years, Mimi has also been writing a blog, NoBlueHair reflecting on aging with attitude. She’s published articles in The New York Times, Los Angeles Times and, most recently, the La Jolla Light.  From taking online art classes at the Atheneum to becoming a member of San Diego Writers, Inc., Mimi has kept creatively busy during Covid lockdown. Now that the live arts are re-emerging, she reached out to Vanguard Culture to help chronicle the exploding San Diego arts scene.  And, still married, her husband is actively pursuing his love of performing, writing and producing music.
