Monica Pearson tore down barriers after becoming the first African American and the first woman to anchor the evening news in Atlanta and after 37 years she's saying 'goodbye' as she heads for retirement. Pearson was all smiles as she received cheers in the WSBTV newsroom and from hundreds of followers on Twitter and Facebook. Pearson plans to write a book and attend graduate school after retirement. As a journalism major, I would be kidding if I said she wasn't an inspiration. She will be missed on the air but I have a feeling we will be seeing more of her.
