Jim Atha Following a 30-year career in advertising, beginning as a copywriter and ending as Senior Vice President of Creative Services, Jim Atha was encouraged to attend classes at OLLI in 2016 by his late husband, Pete Kambiss. Since that beginning, OLLI has brought a rekindling of interest in art and photography, leading to many of his individual pieces placing in juried competitions, winning awards, and even displayed in Las Vegas City Hall. It’s proof that with the kind of encouragement and community OLLI brings, long dormant interests and talents can have a second act.
