Jonas Salk was born on this day in 1914 in New York City. He is best known for developing the first safe and effective polio vaccine, one of the most significant medical breakthroughs of the 20th century. He famously refused to patent his vaccine or seek any profit from it. /1

The #AzIFF Family is heartbroken to hear about the loss of Robert Redford-actor, director, environmental champion, founder of Sundance & tireless promoter of independent filmmaking.
His artistry, activism & courage inspired generations.
The World won't be the same without him.

Thousands of Tucsonans formed a human flag on Sept. 15, 2001
to honor the nearly 3,000 people who died in the 9/11 attacks.
The crowd of over 8,000 local men, women and children gathered at Tucson Electric Park, now Kino Stadium.
