Author Biography

The late great Dink Starns was a charismatic figure who arose from the muck of the Forth Worth Stockyards to become a sophisticated world traveler, a self-professed raconteur, and backroom advisor to the powerful. Once when described as ‘legendary’, one wag commented, “He ain’t legendary… he’s mythological!” A polymath of many interests, he claimed to have 213 hobbies, only one of which was Fort Worth History.
