About Kimber Fountain

Kimber Fountain is a libertarian philosopher, thrice-published author, and freelance writer for the Independent Political Report who resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico. A self-educated researcher, writer, historian, and professional speaker, Kimber’s current writing trajectory is one that has culminated from a multitude of life experiences and observations as an innately free-thinker, spiritualist, feminist, holistic healer, ally, and individualist, as well as a domestic violence and narcissistic abuse survivor. Born into a deeply conservative, Christian household, Kimber’s journey out of the abyss of organized religion and two-party politics into agnostic deism and progressive libertarianism colors her every word, having traversed the ideological and political spectrum from one end to the other. Deepening her insight further, Kimber’s childhood trauma recycled itself into adulthood as an abusive partnership that lasted 9 years, during which time she vowed to become a beacon of empowerment, justice, and resilience for other victims and survivors…if she made it out alive. She did.

Kimber received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theatre and Dance from The University of Texas at Austin, after which she moved to Chicago and worked as a commercial voice-over artist. She then relocated to Galveston, Texas, where she was a Feature Writer and Editor-in-Chief for local publications for 12 years. She served as Chair of the Arts and Historic Preservation Advisory board to the Galveston City Council for 6 years and on the board of the Galveston Naval Museum, where as chair of the Curation & Education Committee she wrote and curated an exhibit entitled, Women of World War II. Kimber is the author of Galveston Seawall Chronicles, Galveston’s Red Light District: A History of The Line, and The Maceos and The Free State of Galveston: An Authorized History, all from Arcadia Publishing ~ The History Press.
