Steve Brown, Barnstable Mass Rotarian
"Former resident of southern AZ and author"

Fellow Rotarian, Steve Brown and his wife Alice, presented an interesting glimpse into his life as a native Tucsonan and his experiences growing up on the Santa Rita Ranch. He did a brief reading from his recently published book entitled Sol Y Sombra (Sun and Shade) set in a fictional mountain range in the Sonora Desert from the 1960s through the 1980s based upon his experiences on this ranch and time period.

The brief excerpt was fascinating and offered a glimpse into life in the Tucson area well before the rapid growth that Tucson has experienced in recent years. More info about his book can be found at www.tinyisland.org.
