they all moved on...
but the daffodils stayed.

This photograph of an abandoned house place, captured on a cloudy winter's day, became the favored image to grace the cover of Conway As it was . . . As it is, a photographic history of Conway, Arkansas. The book is now available for purchase.

Bill Ward came to Conway in the mid-fifties to attend college. Working as a typesetter to support his schooling, he soon found his life's profession when the Log Cabin Democrat, the daily newspaper in that town, began to use photographs and he was already equipped to be its photographer. As he completed assignments over the years, he also documented the world around him as Conway grew from a town of 8,000 to a burgeoning city of more than 50,000. He traveled extensively in his search for simple life–from the Ozarks to the east and west coasts, from Egypt to Taiwan, from Alaska to Mexico. His archive has now grown to thousands of images.
