Genie Fritz

1924 to 2024

Genie Fritz was a major part of Ned’s environmental successes. She is threaded throughout Ned Fritz Legacy, but especially in Origins of a Legend, about their courtship, marriage, and family, and Philosophical Ned, about his last years.

This section will detail all that Genie did beyond Ned and family. It was considerable! She was an astounding social justice warrior, truly groundbreaking. A true hero to many and a role model for the ages.
