'A very kind man with a big heart': Community remembers University photographer Dan Sears
Posted Jun 15, 2023
The walls of Karen Moon’s home are covered in photographs gifted to her by Dan Sears, a UNC alumnus, North Carolina native, and former University photographer. Sears and Moon worked together at the University, but, beyond UNC, Sears was her friend. One of his photographs, depicting fireworks glowing behind the Bell Tower, hangs in her spare room.
