City of Biloxi, MS / A.J. Holloway through the years

This is a video of Mayor A.J. Holloway’s 16-minute presentation to the general assembly of the U.S. Conference of Mayors in January 2006, a mere five months after Hurricane Katrina decimated Biloxi and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Tom Cochran, the longtime executive director of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, invited Holloway to Washington, D.C. to address the nation’s mayors after visiting storm-ravaged Biloxi and the Gulf Coast in the wake of the storm.
