"I was born in Clarksdale in 1957; a boomer! I've lived here all of my life; (Except) for about five years, my wife, we'd just been married a year, we decided to move to Jackson to try to branch out and maybe seek our fame and fortunes; I was in the construction business and did good down there and started a family there but just felt the calling of the Delta," says Bubba O'Keefe the current director of Visit Clarksdale in Clarksdale, Mississippi. "The Delta is a unique place, it has a mystique about it, which I'm sure you've noticed already and our parents were aging and so why are we three hours away raising a family when to us, life was more important and precious to be closer to our family at such an early stage of raising our own family;so, we came back and I just love Clarksdale Mississippi."
