Talk/Reception with David Bisno, M.D., the founder of VISTAS in Santa Barbara
Join us on Wednesday, February 27, to hear Dr. Bisno talk about his passion for lifelong learning.
The Harvard Club of Santa Barbara is pleased to host the third talk in the Harvard Careers Series. The presentations began in spring 2017 with Professor Thomas Everhart, the former President of Caltech. The second talk, in fall 2017, was given by Ron Gallo, CEO and President of the Santa Barbara Foundation. More information about Professor Everhart and Dr. Gallo is available on this website, in Past Events. Speakers are encouraged to talk about their experiences at Harvard, the influences of that experience on their subsequent careers, their accomplishments and lessons learned during their career paths and their passions and adult development beyond their occupation in their life careers.
The third lecture in the Harvard Careers Series will be given by Dr. David Bisno. David graduated from Harvard College, (class ’61), earned his M.D. at the Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, and then practiced ophthalmology for 25 years in Atlanta, GA. At age 53 he returned to New England where between Harvard and Dartmouth he earned an MA in Liberal Studies. Since then, he and his wife, Fay, have developed and presented numerous lectures and courses on a myriad of topics within institutes for lifelong learning in this country and overseas. In 1998 he and Fay were the founders of VISTAS, Santa Barbara’s institute for lifelong learning. In 2003 David returned to Harvard a third time to study constitutional law at the Harvard Law School with Laurence Tribe. In 2011 David and Fay envisioned and made possible the Bisno Schall Clock Gallery at the Santa Barbara Courthouse. (In March 2015, David led a tour of this gallery for Harvard alumni - click here to view this past event).

It will be held at 1021 Anacapa Street, 2nd Floor, in the Brownstein Conference Room which is located in the law firm offices of Brownstein, Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP.
