This Week in Bisbee Person of the Week!
David Day has been in Bisbee 36 years. His father and mother moved to Sierra Vista, and whenever he’d come to visit them he’d find himself here. He decided he wanted to move to Bisbee and take photos of the city. His art teacher said “why would you want to do that?” That was his cue to do it. David feels compelled to take photos of people and places in Bisbee before they disappear. Tell him you saw him in TWIB.
