In 2006, Texas businessman, historian, and photographer Bill Wright
was encouraged-though not officially invited-by the US Department
of State to teach a class in digital photography to young Afghans
in Kabul. The course was sponsored by an Afghan Non-Governmental
Organization, ASCHIANA, which helps to support "working children
and their families." This book records Wright's experiences and
celebrates the creativity he saw flourish at the heart of a war
zone.For thirty-five years Wright owned and managed a petroleum
marketing company. After selling his company to his employees in
1987, he has devoted his time to writing, photography, and public
service for a number of nonprofit 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.
