Author Information

A retired educator, Betty Bailey Colley taught school for twenty years at the elementary, secondary, and college levels and was in administration as a public information officer. While a teacher and also as a school board member for nine years, she became aware of the absence of information, in the Texas historical record, on the contributions of minority groups. She collaborated with Jane Clements Monday on the books Voices from the Wild Horse Desert: The Vaquero Families of the King and Kenedy Ranches and (for young readers) Tales of the Wild Horse Desert. A former mayor of Huntsville, Texas, Jane Clements Monday has served as chair of the Texas State University System Board of Regents and was Texas Public Commissioner to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. She currently serves on the board of the Texas State Historical Association and is a former president of the University of Texas at Austin Texas Exes and a Distinguished Alumnus of the University of Texas at Austin. Her previous books include Petra's Legacy: The South Texas Ranching Empire of Petra Vela and Mifflin Kenedy (with Frances Brannen Vick) and From Slave to Statesman: The Legacy of Joshua Houston, Servant to Sam Houston (with Patricia Smith Prather).
