Robert Glenn Edge was born in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and has lived in Buckhead with his wife, Betty, since the early 1960s. Mr. Edge is recognized by many as the dean of estate planning attorneys in Georgia, but his personal interest and vast education in music is just as impressive. Under the tutelage of the University of Georgia’s Music Department chairman, Hugh Hodgson (1893-1969), Mr. Edge was a child prodigy pianist and continues Hodgson’s “music for everyone” concept with his community involvement, operalogues, and classes sometimes held at his own home in Buckhead. Mr. Edge attended the University of Georgia, where he was valedictorian of his class, Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar, and Yale University Law School. He has served as President of the Atlanta Music Festival Association, is a board member and former managing director of the Metropolitan Opera Association, and is a trustee of the Carter Center and the University of Georgia Foundation. Mr. Edge is a former partner of the law firm Alston & Bird, with which he has worked for twenty-five years. He has served as a chairman of the University of Georgia Foundation and as a Vice President of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.
