Featured Citizen — June 2026

Chris Grey

Chris Grey has been making images for a living since he was 15. Fifty-plus years later, he has settled into Oro Valley, taken over a corner of the SAAG Gallery, and turned his attention to the work he says he was always meant to do be doing. Not photographs exactly. Something stranger and more interesting than that.

Featured Business — June 2026

Alexander Ball, PLLC

Alex Ball opened his Oro Valley practice with an MBA, a JD, and four and a half years on the Pima County bench. The pitch is simple: call before things go wrong. Most Oro Valley business owners can name the moment they realized they needed a lawyer. It usually arrives a beat too late. The contract has already been signed. The handshake deal has already curdled. The deadline has already passed. The invoice from the other side is already in the mailbox.

Featured Founding Citizen — June 2026

Thomas Jefferson

From Monticello to the Louisiana Purchase, from the Library of Congress to the University of Virginia, Jefferson shaped American ideals while embodying its deepest hypocrisies. What would he think of Oro Valley’s free public library offering access to all human knowledge? How does he reconcile his beautiful words with his terrible choices? And what advice would he offer a nation still grappling with the gap between its principles and its practices?
