Question
QUESTION: Hi Judy,

My name is Jared Jackson. I am an editor for Arcadia Publishing and would like to ask you if you would be interested in Authoring an Historical Photographic Book in Phoenix, perhaps the history of Central City Village of Phoenix. We're not a vanity press. There are zero upfront costs to publish with us. You will recieve royalties and see your book sold in all major bookstores such as Barners and Nobles and Borders Books. Again we're Arcadia Publishing the nations leading publisher for local history books.

Thank you,
Jared Jackson

ANSWER: Hi Jared,

I am not an historian, nor do I own any historical photographs of Phoenix.

Thanks for thinking of me!

QUESTION: Actually since you know of the area and have extensive knowledge of Phoenix, you can have free access to Phoenix History Photographs from the Arizona Historical Foundation. Here you can do research and collect historical photographs to author a book with us. I am basically looking for someone with your experience to help preserve Phoenix's history.

Thank you for your time,
Jared
