BIOGRAPHY

Originally from North Mississippi, Steve has lived in Arkansas since 1977. Growing up around an agricultural environment, Steve quickly became fascinated with plants and the joy of seeing things grow. His second love, music, has also played a big part in his life. Both of Steve’s grandmothers were avid gardeners. His paternal grandmother (1/4 Cherokee) planted every vegetable by the signs of the Almanac, and his maternal grandmother grew an abundance of flowering plants.

Steve grew up in the small town of Baldwyn, Mississippi and attended the University of Mississippi with a double major in music and accounting. In 1977 Steve moved to Little Rock and quickly settled in to this great southern city. Steve and his partner George Mobbs founded and own Pyramid Data Midsouth, Inc., a bookkeeping service in North Little Rock specializing in small to medium-sized businesses particularly non-profit organizations.

Steve’s is a founding member of the Little Rock Wind Symphony, served as treasurer for 9 years, and is currently an active board member. Steve plays euphonium with the group. (www.lrwindsymphony.org)

In 1985 Steve and his partner George purchased land and a cabin on Greer’s Ferry Lake and became seduced by the beauty of the area. When not working, they are there every free moment tending their land, growing flowers and vegetables, raising chickens, goats and donkeys. In 1989 they had the privilege of meeting Victor Gates and Verne Rogers. The four quickly became friends, enjoying many of the same interests. It is from this friendship that the Gates Rogers Foundation was born.
