Patricia Saunders, a native of Medford was always intrigued with the City’s rich history. After years of photographing the historic homes and places around Medford she was pleased to have the opportunity to compile and edit Medford Then and Now.

Patricia is currently the events coordinator for Medford Arts Center, Inc. and the chairperson for the annual Mabray “Doc” Kountze Festival. One of the co-founders of a grass roots effort to establish an Arts and Cultural Center in Medford she is currently on the board of the Medford Arts Center, Inc. as events coordinator.

Patricia is a fine arts photographer who has exhibited locally. When she finds the time she experiments with digital drawings and restoring and painting old furniture.
She hopes her book will inspire local citizens to compare our past to our present and help understand our history. For more information on the book and photographs e-mail pattysfotos@msn.com
