Join filmmaker and director Larry Foley for his latest film about Arkansas icon, Jim Blair. In his 90 years, Blair befriended, mentored and worked with a rich cast of monumental Arkansas and national decision makers, including business tycoons, politicians – and even a U.S. president. As corporate attorney for Tyson Foods, he worked alongside Don Tyson as the company became the largest poultry producer in the U.S. A dedicated philanthropist, Blair made the largest gift ever to a public library in Arkansas – the Blair Library in his Fayetteville hometown – where his lifelong love of books and reading was cultivated. Jim and his wife, Nancy, are Butterfield residents.
