BRADENTON, Fla., - December 1st, 2009 - Beall's Department Stores is excited to host Guy Harvey autograph
sessions on Saturday, December 5th at the Port Charlotte Towne Center Beall's store location and Sunday,
December 6th at the Fort Myers Bealls store location.
Bealls' partnership with Guy Harvey extends over 15 years. Beall's is the largest retail store for Guy Harvey tees,

Guy Harvey is a unique blend of artist, scientist, diver, angler, conservationist and explorer - fiercely devoted to his
family and his love of the sea. Growing up in Jamaica, Guy spent many hours fishing and diving with his father
along the island nation's south coast. He was obsessed with marine life and began drawing pictures of the many
different fish he observed.
In early 2008, Guy started the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to funding
leading scientists as they develop new strategies for sensible fisheries management and educators, who will create
novel instructional programs to stimulate future scientists and stewards of the marine environment.
