Bill Jay: 1940-2009

May 13, 2009

Sad news today that photo historian, publisher, author and photographer BILL JAY passed away in his sleep on Sunday in his recently adopted hometown of Samara on the Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica. I received the news from colleagues at Arizona State University and have yet to learn more from Bill’s family. Follow link for more:
