the French Legion of Honour award. High Museum of Art Her work with the High Museum of Art began in 1965 when Chambers helped to establish the Forward Arts Foundation, a fund-raising group for the museum. In the early 1980s Chambers served as honorary chair of the fund-raising effort to construct the museum's Richard Meier–designed complex. In October 2006, the High, in collaboration with the Louvre in Paris, France, presented the exhibition "Louvre Atlanta"; the partnership had been facilitated by Chambers. In 2005, the museum named one of the wings of its expanded facility after Chambers in recognition of her lifetime of support. Personal life and death Chambers was married to Louis G. Johnson with whom she had two daughters, Katherine and Margaretta. The marriage ended in divorce. In 1955, she married Robert William Chambers, with whom she had a son, James. Chambers died at her home in Atlanta on January 31, 2020, at the age of 100 due to natural causes.
