Hot Spring County Now & Then was founded by Tony Warner, a retired Arkansas media professional and longtime Hot Spring County resident with a deep love for storytelling, local history, and community life. Tony brings years of experience in communications, broadcasting, video production, and book publishing, along with a sincere interest in preserving and sharing the stories of the place he has called home since 1989.

We have a simple goal — to celebrate the history, people, places, and everyday moments that make our community special, while also shining a light on the stories unfolding around us today. What started as a passion project has grown into a way to preserve local heritage, share hometown pride, and encourage a new generation to appreciate from where we come.

With a camera, a curious spirit, and a heart for Hot Spring County, Tony works to honor our roots while helping others see the beauty, character, and potential all around us. Whether you’re young or young at heart, we’re glad you’re here to share in the journey.
