Jenny Young Mackler
Jenny Young Mackler
Lured by its motto as the Creative Capital, Jenny Young moved to Providence in 2010 after graduating from the University of Colorado. As an artist herself, she became immersed in an expansive creative community, which led to her work in event organizing. She has a passion for bringing people together to share ideas and collaborate.
Born and raised in Houston, Jenny is a proud Texan but considers herself a true Rhode Islander now. She is ever curious in learning about local history and culture, and enjoys discovering the special hidden gems that Providence has to offer.

She first started working at the library in 2012, and returned in 2015 after a two-year foray into interior design. Outside the Athenæum, Robin particularly enjoys reading (obviously), sampling Providence’s excellent restaurants, strolling Blackstone Boulevard, and going on adventures near and far.

As a connoisseur of odd jobs, she has worked as a photographer, chocolate maker, bicycle tour guide, and botanical library assistant, all of which in one way or another supported her love of food. She loves cheese (perhaps above all else).
