In Memorium:

Michael Alvarez, President/Chairman 2018-2022

Michael was born in the Southern California city of Torrance, where he graduated from North Torrance High School. Michael moved up to the City of Visalia in 2007, where he became a full time professional photographer while also stringing for Gannett News (Visalia Times Delta/Tulare Advance Register). Michael also worked for Mike's Quality Camera until they went into retirement and closed shop. Michael sat on the Arts Consortium Board of Directors, as well as the Community Advisory Board with Valley PBS, and served as Advisory Chairperson for the El Diamante High School Academy of Media Arts.

Sadly, Michael passed away on July 24, 2022. He is sorely missed by everyone who knew him.
