After selling his company to his employees in 1987, he has devoted his time to writing, photography, and public service on a number of non-profit organizations including the National Council for the Humanities, the Texas Council of the Humanities, and most recently as a commissioner on the Texas Commission for the Arts"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Wright, Bill, $d 1933- $x Travel $z Afghanistan. 600 17 $a Wright, Bill, $d 1933- $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/331817 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/331817 650 0 $a Afghan War, 2001-2021 $x Photography. 650 0 $a Afghan War, 2001-2021 $x Social aspects $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Young photographers $z Kabul. $z Kabul. 651 0 $a Afghanistan $x Description and travel. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh87003721 650 7 $a PHOTOGRAPHY / Subjects & Themes / Regional (see also TRAVEL / Pictorials) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a PHOTOGRAPHY / Individual Photographers / Artists' Books. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Photography. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1061714 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1061714 650 7 $a Social aspects. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1354981 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1354981 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1155558 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1155558 650 7 $a Young photographers. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1183288 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1183288 651 7 $a Afghanistan. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205406 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205406 651 7 $a Afghanistan $z Kabul. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1719813 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1719813 648 7 $a Since 2001 $2 fast 655 7 $a Pictorial works. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423874 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423874 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919983 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919983 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026200 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023923.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=95A7FCDE851711EEB4A9908744ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
