Calloway’s is a family-owned business with a tiny group of employees who really like the work they do. So, if you visit us often, you will always see faces you know!
Rod
Rod is a second-generation Ledbetter owner and has been managing Calloway’s since he returned from service in Afghanistan. He was reared in the lamp business and, during his stint at Bearden Elementary, would walk across the street after school to be put to work. He began building lamps and doing repairs for the family at age 13, and his passion for lighting developed quickly.
Because Rod grew up inundated with the best of lighting, he has an appreciation for all types, from crystal and cloisonné to midcentury modern and steampunk. Whether repairing a customer’s lamp or building his own, the common denominator in Rod’s work is high quality construction, as he prefers real materials to composites and uses only the finest components in his lighting builds.
Skip
Paul “Skip” Ledbetter owned Calloway’s for over 35 years. His creativity, vision, and determination are what evolved Calloway’s from just a simple lamp repair store to what it is today. Nowadays, he prefers golfing, traveling, and playing in his RV. He still visits us regularly to bring interesting finds from his travels, weigh in on a new project or purchase, and gossip. If you’re in the store when he visits, he might even help you with a lampshade!
